Sauropods that have been
discovered include the Diplodocus (most famously, the first nearly - complete specimen of Diplodocus carnegiei, that is now exhibited at the Carnegie Museum of Natural History, Camarasaurus (the most commonly found sauropod), Brachiosaurus,
Apatosaurus (also wrongly known as Brontosaurus), Barosaurus, the uncommon Haplocanthosaurus and the Seismosaurus.
