SANTIAGO, Chile (Reuters) -- Two Chilean scientists said on Thursday they had discovered a new species of dinosaur, a long-necked plant eater that roamed the region 70 million years ago.

Paleontologists David Rubilar, 28, and Alexander Vargas, 26, named their find "Domeykosaurus chilensis" after 19th Century Chilean scientist Ignacio Domeyko. They said it is unlike any other specimen found so far.

They have assembled about 40 percent of the skeleton from fossils a geologist stumbled on several years ago in northern Chile, forming the most complete specimen ever found in Chile. The find has yet to be officially approved by the scientific community.
