This paleontological restoration is highly hypothetical, as very little fossil material of the animal is known. Use of this image might be controversial.

Reason: Known from disarticulated remains which might not belong together. The mandible might not belong to the same individual as the braincase.

Summary

Description
English: A skull diagram of the titanosaur Antarctosaurus wichmannianus showing known areas in white and unknown areas in grey. The remains attributed to A.wichmannianus are of questionable referral, the association of the described elements and therefore, this reconstruction are not certain. It is possible that the mandible and rear parts of the skull do not belong to the same individual or even genus.[1] This image assumes they do belong to the same individual.
• Known skull elements based on the illustrations in Huene (1929).[2] Unknown areas inspired by Figure 7 in Gallina & Apesteguia (2011) and other titanosaur skull reconstructions.[3] The size of the sclerotic ring is speculative.
