ABSTRACT—Megaraptorid theropods thrived in South America and Australia during the mid-Cretaceous. Their Australian record is currently limited to the upper Barremian–lower Aptian upper Strzelecki Group and the upper Aptian–lower Albian Eumeralla Formation of Victoria, the Cenomanian Griman Creek Formation of New South Wales, and the Cenomanianlowermost Turonian Winton Formation of Queensland. The latter has produced Australovenator wintonensis, the stratigraphically youngest and most complete Australian megaraptorid. The Eric the Red West (ETRW) site on Cape Otway, Victoria (Eumeralla Formation; lower Albian), has yielded two teeth, two manual unguals, and a right astragalus that are almost identical to the corresponding elements in Australovenator. Herein, we classify these as Megaraptoridae cf. Australovenator wintonensis.
