A supposed Gondwanan oviraptorosaur from the Albian of Brazil represents the oldest South American megaraptoran

A specimen composed of a partial sacrum articulated to two anterior caudal vertebrae and an ilium (SMNS 58023) from the Lower Cretaceous (Albian) Santana Formation of Brazil was originally described as an oviraptorosaur, but it is here re-interpreted as the oldest megaraptoran of South America. The phylogenetic relationships of SMNS 58023 were tested quantitatively for the first time including it in the two most comprehensive phylogenetic data...
