Allosaurus europaeus
Mateus, O., Walen, A. and Antunes, M.T. (2006) The large theropod fauna of the Lourinhã Formation (Portugal) and its similatiry to the Morrison Formation, with a description of a new species of Allosaurus. In Foster, J.R. and Lucas, S. G. R.M., eds., 2006, Paleontology and Geology of the Upper Jurassic Morrison Formation. New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science Bulletin 36
Mateus et al. 2006 report a new Allosaurus specimen (Allosaurus europaeus) from the Porto Novo Member of Lourinhã Formation, Portugal. Due to its general skull design and the autapomorphic large, mediolaterally compressed, dorsally projecting lacrimal horn it is clearly Allosaurus. However it differs from A. fragilis by several differences. A detailed anatomical description is in progress.
