What is A new herrerasaurian dinosaur from the Upper Triassic Upper Maleri Formation of south-central India about?
Some of the oldest known dinosaurs and the first faunasnumerically dominated by them are documented in theUpper Triassic–Lower Jurassic-aged Gondwana formationsexposed in the Pranhita-Godavari Valley of south-centraland east-central India. The Upper Maleri Formation ofthe Pranhita-Godavari Basin preserves an early-middleNorian dinosaur assemblage numerically dominated bysauropodomorph dinosaurs, including at least two nominalspecies. However, the preliminary report of a herrerasauriandinosaur specimen indicates that this assemblage of southcentral Gondwana was more taxonomically diverse. Here,we describe and compare in detail the anatomy and assessthe taxonomy and phylogenetic relationships of the UpperMaleri herrerasaurian specimen. A unique combination of character states present in this specimenallows the erection of the new genus and species Maleriraptor kuttyi. Updated quantitativephylogenetic analyses focused on early dinosauriforms recovered Maleriraptor kuttyi as a memberof Herrerasauria outside of the South American clade Herrerasauridae. Maleriraptor kuttyi fillsa temporal gap between the Carnian South American herrerasaurids and the younger middleNorian–Rhaetian herrera
