First Definitive Abelisaurid Theropod from the Late Cretaceous of Northwestern Argentina

ABSTRACT The fossil record of abelisaurid theropods in South America is mostly limited to Brazil and Argentina. In Argentina, abelisaurids are generally known from Patagonia, where their record is…

Elemgasem nubilus: a new brachyrostran abelisaurid (Theropoda, Ceratosauria) from the Portezuelo Formation (Upper Cretaceous) of Patagonia, Argentina

Abelisaurids are medium–large‐sized theropod dinosaurs that were predominant in the carnivorous fauna during the Late Cretaceous of Gondwana. These predators are abundant in the Cretaceous fossil…

The Biggest Megaraptoridae (Theropoda: Coelurosauria) of South America

Megaraptorans are a theropod clade distributed in former Gondwana landmasses and Asia. Most members of the clade are known from early Cretaceous to Turonian times whereas Maastrichtian megaraptorans…

A spinosaurid from Thailand (Sao Khua Formation, Early Cretaceous) and a reassessment of Camarillasaurus cirugedae from the Early Cretaceous of Spain

The skull of Carnotaurus sastrei Bonaparte 1985 revisited: insights from craniofacial bones, palate and lower jaw

ABSTRACT Carnotaurus sastrei is perhaps the most iconic representative of the Abelisauridae family. It is known by a fairly complete specimen, recovered from Upper Cretaceous beds of southern…

Histology and pneumaticity of Aoniraptor libertatem (Dinosauria, Theropoda), an enigmatic mid‐sized megaraptoran from Patagonia

A detailed analysis of pneumaticity of the sacrum and tail of Aoniraptor shows a complex structure within these vertebrae, being composed by small diverticulae surrounding large pNEumatic canals and a central chamber that opens outside through pleurocoels or pnematic canals.

New carnivorous dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous of NW Patagonia and the evolution of abelisaurid theropods

It is suggested that isolated teeth originally referred as post-Cenomanian Carcharodontosauridae most probably belong to abelisaurids, and the development of horn-like structures and differential cranial thickening appear to be convergently acquired within Abelisauridae.

An Unusual New Theropod with a Didactyl Manus from the Upper Cretaceous of Patagonia, Argentina

A new, partially articulated mid-sized theropod was found in rocks from the Huincul Formation and represents the first likely neovenatorid from this unit, the most basal tetatanuran to exhibit common patterns of digit III reduction that evolved independently in a number of other tetanuran lineages.

A New Titanosaur Sauropod from the Upper Cretaceous of Patagonia, NeuquéN Province, Argentina

Phylogenetic analysis recovers Choconsaurus baileywillisi as a non-eutitanosaur titanosaur, taxa that are well represented in the lower Upper Cretaceous of Patagonia.

A bizarre predatory dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous of Madagascar

The occurrence of Masiakasaurus on Madagascar suggests that small-bodied abelisauroids, like their larger-bodied counterparts, were more cosmopolitan, radiating throughout much of Gondwana and paralleling the diversification of small coelurosaur theropods in Laurasia.
