Ceratosauridae [SEP] parent taxon
Ceratosauridae
Ceratosauridae is a family of theropod dinosaurs belonging to the infraorder Ceratosauria. The family's type genus, "Ceratosaurus", was first found in Jurassic rocks from North America. Ceratosauridae is made up of the genera "Ceratosaurus", found in North America, Tanzania, and Portugal, and "Genyodectes", from the Early Cretaceous of Argentina. Unnamed probable ceratosaurids are known from limited material in the Middle Jurassic of Madagascar, the Late Jurassic of Switzerland, and the Late Jurassic or possibly Early Cretaceous of Uruguay.
is also material from a diplodocid sauropod, a stegosaurian, and multiple theropods. Three cervicals of the diplodocid are preserved, and from their size it is possible that the taxon was also a dwarf. The stegosaurian and variety of theropods only preserve teeth, with the exception of a few bones possibly from a taxon in Ceratosauridae. Isolated teeth show that there were at least four different types of theropods present at the locality, including the megalosaurid "Torvosaurus sp." as well as an additional megalosaurid and indeterminate members of the Allosauridae
