Lourinhã Formation

Allosaurus[7][8]

A. europaeus[7]

Porto Novo Member[7]

Two specimens, covering much of the body.[9]

Potentially a synonym of the type species, A. fragilis.

A. fragilis[8]

Porto Novo Member[7][8]

Two specimens, covering much of the body.[9]

Now thought to represent a distinct species of Allosaurus, A. europaeus.[7]

Ceratosaurus[7][10][11]

C. dentisulcatus[7][10]

• Praia da Amoreira Member[7][10]
• Amoreira-Porto Novo Member[12]

Four specimens; teeth, a femur.[7][10]

Potentially a synonym of the type species, C. nasicornis. Sometimes referred to as C. sp., giving indication of possible distinctiveness or of being intermediate.[12]

Lourinhanosaurus[5][13]

L. antunesi[5][13]

• Sobral Member[13]
• Amoreira-Porto Novo Member[12]

Three individuals, one largely complete; over 100 eggs with significant amount of skeletal material.[13]

Has come out in various places in the tree, erroneously said to be a megalosaur,[7] mostly accepted to be a carnosaur, probably allosauroid, or basal coelurosaur. Currently unstable on the tree.[13]

Megalosaurus[6]

M. insignis[6]

Teeth.[6]

Invalid. Teeth belong to various other theropod taxa.[6]

M. pombali[6]

Teeth.[6]

Invalid. Teeth belong to various other theropod taxa[6]

M. sp.[6]

Tooth fragment.[6]

Invalid; Dubious.[6]

Richardoestesia[6]

R. aff. gilmorei[6]

Tooth; ML 939[6]

Only definite record of this taxon is from the Late Cretaceous of North America, despite erroneous and referrals from other sites in Portugal. Probably a close relative of Richardoestesia and not an actual representation of the taxon.[6]

Torvosaurus[7][14]

T. gurneyi[14]

• Sobral Member[15]
• Amoreira-Porto Novo Member[12][15]
• Bombaral Member[15]

Maxilla, Teeth, Femur; Egg clutch and embryos.[3][7][14][15]

Largest known European theropod. Previous known as Portugal populations of the type species, or as T. sp., before description in early 2014.[14]

T. tanneri[14]

• Sobral Member[15]
• Amoireira-Porto Novo[12][15]
• Bombaral Member[15]

Maxilla, Teeth, Femur; Probable embryo.[13][14]

Now described as a distinct species of Torvosaurus, T. gurneyi. Sometimes referred to as T. sp. in the past.[14]

Dinheirosaurus[16][17]

D. lourinhanensis[16][17]

Amoreira-Porta Novo Member[12][16][17]

One specimen. Vertebrae; potentially other parts of the body.[16][17]

Junior synonym of Supersaurus.

Diplodocidae indet.[17]

Intermediate[17]

One Dorsal Vertebra[17]

Regarded by Mannion et al. (2012) as being unique from Dinheirosaurus and possibly indicating another diplodocid in the formation, but being non-diagnostic it doesn't warrant description.[17]

Lourinhasaurus[18]

L. alenquerensis[18]

• Sobral Unit (or Sobral Formation) [18]

Lusotitan[19][20]

L. atalaiensis[19][20]

Fragmentary material.[19]

A large brachiosaur, a close relative of Brachiosaurus proper.[19]

Supersaurus[22]

Trimucrodon[5]

T. cuneatus[5]

Amoreira-Porto Novo Member[12]

Alocodon[5]

A. kuehnei[5]

Dacentrurus[23]

D. armatus[23]

Deltapodus[24]

D. brodricki[24]

Eleven tracks; Nine pes and two manus prints.[24]

The tracks can be separated into three different morphologies, though all fall within range of the taxon. Association of the pes and manus tracks to the same taxon cannot be directly supported. Preserve various well preserved skin impressions. Largest prints are larger than those from the type horizon. The tracks are individually represented and do not form any sort of trackway, thought one print is associated with giant ornithopod track,[25] potentially representing that the creatures were traveling together or were otherwise going to a similar location. Another is similarly associated with theropod and sauropod prints.[24]

• Sobral Unit[23]
• Amoreira-Porto Novo Member[12]

Camptosaurus[27]

Intermediate[27]

Limb material.[27]

Now referred to its own genus, Draconyx, along with some other material.[27]

Draconyx[27]

D. loureiroi[27]

Bombarral Member[27]

Two specimens; holotype, relatively incomplete, and a femur.[27]

Dryosaurus[5]

D. sp.[5]

Sobral Unit

Ornithopoda indet.[25]

Intermediate[25]

Single track.[25]

Gigantic track indicating an ornithopod with a hip height of 2.5 meters. No known Jurassic Ornithopod reaches this size; only known evidence for such sizes in this group at the time. Found alongside Deltapodus print.[25]
