  1.

  2. As a freshmen in College, I did a little extra credit report for my geology class about a controversial topic - Tyrannosauroidea diversity in the Southern Hemisphere during the Jurassic-Early Late Cretaceous periods. I was quite surprised at the amount of specimens I found. This diversity likely was the result of an early spread of the early tyrannosaur group Pantyrannosauria into Africa, Eurasia, and North America during the Jurassic and diversified once the land connecting these continents spread out more. Most of these species lived during the Early Cretaceous, though one or two exceptions might have lasted into the Early Late Cretaceous. I've created a list of known of the species and specimens which I would like to share on the forum (let me if there are any examples I'm missing or should add): South America Santanaraptor (Romualdo Member of the Santana Formation) (Early Albian, Cretaceous period 112.6-109.0 million years ago) Specimen: MN 4802-V (partial skeleton) http://www.fossilworks.org/cgi-bin/bridge.pl?a=collectionSearch&collection_no=67712 Tyrannosauroidea indet. (Rio do Peixe Group of the Sousa Formation) (Berriasian to the Berriasian, Cretaceous period 145.5-130.0 million years ago) Specimen: NA http://www.fossilworks.org/cgi-bin/bridge.pl?a=collectionSearch&collection_no=58791 https://www.researchgate.net/publication/309717524_As_localidades_com_rastros_fosseis_de_Tetrapodes_na_America_Latina Tyrannosauroidea indet. (Serra da Galga Member of Marília Formation) (Late Maastrichtian, Cretaceous Period, 70.0-66.0 million years ago) Specimen: CPP 449 (partial tooth) https://www.researchgate.net/publication/270524259_Theropod_teeth_from_the_Marilia_Formation_late_Maastrichtian_at_the_paleontological_site_of_Peiropolis_in_Minas_Gerais_State_Brazil (above paper initially described specimen, identification as possible Tyrannosauroidea in science direct paper) https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0031018220303151 Africa (Madagascar) Tyrannosauroidea indet. (Isalo Illb Formation) (Bathonian, Jurassic period 167.7-164.7 million years ago) Specimen: MSNM V5819 (partial tooth) http://www.fossilworks.org/cgi-bin/bridge.pl?a=collectionSearch&collection_no=55391 https://www.researchgate.net/publication/257651210_First_description_of_theropod_remains_from_the_Middle_Jurassic_Bathonian_of_Madagascar Australia Timimus hermani (Otway Group of Eumeralla Formation) (Late Aptian, Cretaceous period 122.5-109.0 million years ago) Specimens: NMV P186303 (limb: left femur), NMV P186323 (limb: left femur of juvenile individual), QM F34621 (Pedal phalanx III-1) http://www.paleofile.com/Dinosaurs/Theropods/Timimus.asp http://www.fossilworks.org/cgi-bin/bridge.pl?a=taxonInfo&taxon_no=57099 Tyrannosauroidea indet. (Otway Group of Eumeralla Formation) (Late Aptian, Cretaceous period 110.0 million years ago) Specimen: NMV P186069 (Pubis bone) Possible Specimen: ?NMV P186046 (Pubis bone) https://www.researchgate.net/publication/42589187_A_Southern_Tyrant_Reptile https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2010/03/100325143045.htm
  3. A while back, I was researching the number of likely Tyrannosauroidea dinosaurs that inhabited the Southern Hemisphere (I know this is a very controversial subject) in the Early Cretaceous for an extra credit research paper I was doing for my freshmen year college geology class. As I was looking for data for the paper, I found an unusual data entry on the paleontological database website fossilworks.org - It lists Tyrannosauridae remains from Jurassic Madagascar. http://www.fossilworks.org/cgi-bin/bridge.pl?a=collectionSearch&collection_no=55391 The specimen MSNM V5819 (consisting of a partial tooth) was apparently found in Mahajanga, Madagascar at the Bathonian aged Isalo Illb Formation (dating 167.7-164.7 million years ago) in 2003. S. Maganuco, A. Cau, and G. Pasini (2005) First description of theropod remains from the Middle Jurassic (Bathonian) of Madagascar. Atti della Società Italiana di Scienze Naturali e del Museo Civico di Storia Naturale di Milano, 146(2):165-202 https://www.researchgate.net/publication/257651210_First_description_of_theropod_remains_from_the_Middle_Jurassic_Bathonian_of_Madagascar (You can read the actual paper with this above link). Here is also two photographs from the paper of the specimen MSNM V5819 The authors of the paper (which I must say did a really good job with the research and paper itself) state that a healthy degree of caution must be given in assigning MSNM V5819 to Tyrannosauroidea. Still, if this is indeed correct, It would be one of the earliest members of Tyrannosauroidea, with the only currently known older Tyrannosauroidea taxon being Proceratosaurus of England. The Specimen MSNM V5819 is maybe even older than Kileskus of Russia, Guanlong of China, and Aviatyrannus of Portugal. Still, the only currently known specimen is a single tooth, MSNM V5819, and I'm not 100% certain this represents a member of Tyrannosauroidea? What do you guys think?
