Resumen:
Remains of juvenile sauropods from the Upper Cretaceous Portezuelo Formation (Neuquén Group), at Barreales Lake (Neuquén Province), are identified and described. The material include a femur (14.6 cm length) and an anterior caudal vertebra (3.1 cm length),. Their general morphology allows us to assign these bones to the Titanosauria. Although a specific assignation is impossible, in view of the fragmentary condition of the material, these bones are important because they expand our knowledge on the immature stages of titanosaurs.
