Argentina head coach Daniel Hourcade has named his 31-man rugby union World Cup squad, with no great surprises coming in the announcement.
Star players Juan Imhoff, Juan Martin Hernandez, Juan Fernandez Lobbe and Marcelo Bosch all took their places in the final squad.
Hourcade ditched seven players from the squad that participated at the Rugby Championship, ending their campaign last week with a first-ever victory over South Africa.
Lock Manuel Carizza and prop Juan Figallo were amongst those to miss out.
The Pumas concluded their World Cup preparation with a 26-12 home defeat to the Springboks on Saturday, just a week after their historic win in Durban.
The players will have two weeks off before leaving for London on August 31.
They will also take part in a training camp in Portugal before their opening match of the tournament against holders New Zealand on September 20.
Argentina, who are favourites to qualify from Pool C alongside the All Blacks, will be hoping to emulate their previous best World Cup performance, third place in 2007.
