The largest dinosaur known from Australia, comparable in size to large South American dinosaurs. Potentially a synonym of the contemporary Diamantinasaurus [2] Australovenator: 2009 Winton Formation (Late Cretaceous, Cenomanian) Australia: Analysis of its arms suggests it was well-adapted to grasping [3] Austrosaurus: 1933
The South Polar region housed many endemic species, including several relict forms that had gone extinct elsewhere by the Cretaceous. Of the dinosaur assemblage, the most diverse were the small hypsilophodont-like dinosaurs. The South Polar region also was home to the last labyrinthodont amphibian, Koolasuchus.
Glacialisaurus was found about 650 kilometres (400 mi) from the South Pole, [14] which was about 1,000 km (621 mi) or so farther north at the time. [16] This formation has yielded the remains of the large theropod Cryolophosaurus , a crow-sized dimorphodontid pterosaur, a rat-sized tritylodont synapsid , and two small unnamed sauropodomorphs.

Cryolophosaurus (/ ˌ k r aɪ ə ˌ l oʊ f ə ˈ s ɔːr ə s / or / k r aɪ ˌ ɒ l ə f ə ˈ s ɔːr ə s /; KRY-ə-LOH-fə-SAWR-əs) is a genus of large theropod dinosaur known from only a single species Cryolophosaurus ellioti, from the early Jurassic of Antarctica.
The genus must appear on the List of dinosaur genera. At least one named species of the creature must have been found in South America. This list is a complement to Category:Mesozoic dinosaurs of South America.
This list of nicknamed dinosaur fossils is a list of fossil non-avian dinosaur specimens given informal names or nicknames, in addition to their institutional catalogue numbers. It excludes informal appellations that are purely descriptive (e.g., "the Fighting Dinosaurs", "the Trachodon Mummy").
