SPINOSAURIDAE and other MEGALOSAUROIDS . Dinosaurs size comparison and data 

Hey your torvo is slightly undersized, Edmarka rex(Torvosaurus tanneri) has been shown to be as large as Acrocanthosaurus sooo, your old video with torvo was more accurate

And thanks for featuring me on the credits!!!

No sabía que los megalosauridos eran parientes del spinosaurus .

@@Melanosuchusss Torvosaurus gurneyi* (T. tanneri is the smaller species)

@@Mikailodon Thank YOU for joining!

This is the 4th time 😂

hahahaha accurate

@@MarioLanzas. Mario, please also make a new Shantungosaurus. It was the largest hadrosaur.

@@ellieavram1443 it's already done in the ornithopoda video

@Mario Lanzas Why Its Spine Shaped Like That ?

Even though it's a generic theropod only known from a partial jaw & a pelvis

@@bestuan it’s a really cool dinosaur stop being rude

@@cartooncatboy3009 all dinosaurs are cool, but how is it unique other than it being the first one found?

“What do we call this big ancient reptile we just found?” “Uh, I don’t know, Big Lizard?” “You’re a genius”

@bloodes Herrerasaurids (if they are in fact theropods) atleast have one popular member - Herrerasaurus. Dilophosauridae is a questionable family. Presently I'm mostly seeing Dilophosaurus being presented as simply basal Neotheropoda. But even if it was a real family Dilophosaurus is still very popular thanks to Jurassic Park. The problem is that people often have little to no idea where it goes on the theropod family tree. Some just seem to assume that it must be related to Cryolophosaurus and Monolophosaurus (which is likely true about the former but not for the latter) based on their names or the fact that they all have some kind of crest. Coeluridae is also questionable but atleast Ornitholestes is relatively popular. So I still stand by what I said about Piatnitzkysauridae being the carnivourous theropod family that is the most unknown by people in general. It has only 3 members currently and non of them are popular, with them being Piatnitzkysaurus, Marshosaurus and Condorraptor. I haven't seen anything about questioning its family status so it should be a proper clade.

@bloodes Just to clarify we are talking about unknown not underrated because to me the most underrated carnivorous theropods are the Megaraptorans which don't get a 1/10 of the representation they deserve.

@bloodes Piatnitzkysauridae is usually placed as a family within Megalosauroidea superfamily. I've never seen them included with Megalosauridae. The analysis that came along with the description of Asfaltovenator even put them within Allosauroidea, but that's not universally accepted as this paper also suggests that Megalosauroidea as we usually define it might be a paraphyletic group

Well, most Jurassic theropods just look like generic movie T. rex to most people.

But is it biologically possible for Spinosaurids not to have lips or to have some of their teeth showing and the rest hidden? I mean, there's no conclusive or unquestionable evidence that they did have them, is just that they were more likely to have them. But could a lipless Spinosaurid be biologically possible?

@@Primevaln1 you're right and a lipless spinosaurus is possible. Crocodiles being lipless is a specialization, like lizards and amphibians, the ancestors of crocodiles had lips. But crocodiles are highly specialized in their niche, spinosaurus weren't subaquatic for nearly as much as crocs. I'd wager on spinosaurus eventually inevitably loosing its lips, but unfortunately spinosaurus wasn't occupying its niche for nearly as long as the crocodilians. Early crocodilomorphs had lips, there was one, i forget the species name, but it even had clear protruding cheek bones. Crocodile liplessness is a very specialized characteristic. Unfortunately it has also hindered many from trying to go back to a terrestrial lifestyle, and believe me many have tried including the most recent quinkana.

@@trvth1s Neither birds or crocodiles possess lips and there's no evidence of them in Dinosaurs so the idea that it's a definitive feature is very much just a modern paleoart meme. Its not impossible but it reeks of feathered Tyrannosaurus vibes.

@@nutyyyy we have fossilized tyranosaurid protofeather, most notably the giant yutyrannus. Birds don't have teeth. Crocodiles are subaquatic. There are no exceptions of toothed terrestrial amniote lacking lips in any living species (amphibian, reptilian and mammalian). There is a biological purpose for lips in toothed terrestrial fauna. Assuming that extinct dinosaurs are the exception is....amateur and not scientific. FYI we do have fossil evidence of ornithischians having cheeks. Cheeks are a specialized morphology of lips.

@@nutyyyy Dinosaurs likely had lips, literally every tetrapod I can think of has lips covering most of their teeth. Crocodiles are really the only exception. Lips are incredibly advantageous, as they protect your teeth and mouth from damage or drying out. I don't know why you are bringing up bird beaks, since beaks don't need lips since they are already closed structures and don't have teeth to protect. There is every reason for beakless dinosaurs to have lips.

I'm not joking, it's full scientific name translates to "irritating challenge". This was because it was annoying to reconstruct.

Spinosaurus gots a Wierd Facing 360 angle of its head and it's a Dpinosauridae

True, it's possible that it could be a teen or sub adult spinosaurus

Gracias!! :D

Thank YOU! for now there's a tie with the Kaijus... Supposedly one can vote more that once, so let's see which one wins

@@MarioLanzas. WWD gang for the win!!!

@@MarioLanzas. It's sad that Allosauroidea is losing the vote. It already lost 2 times. 😢

Yes. Super underrated. Probably the strongest theropods

@@stegotyranno4206 indeed

Wrong tyrannosaurus is the largest and strongest terrestrial predator fact.

Spino just longer and slender animal with very short legs fact.

@@rodrigopinto6676 Spino was bigger either way giganotosaurus,charcharadontosaurus,and acrocanthosaurus were all bigger

Thank you!

Thank you! :)

I have know idea what those two dinosaurs are

@@rugops6549Genyodectes serus looks very similar to cerato but possibly smaller

Yeah, it used to just be a baryonyx with a sail on the back, but now it looks unique and less generic.

@@Doomguyhunter1 Yeah, it looks way more unique and I really like unique dinosaurs. That's why I love the Spinosaurus, Acrocanthosaurus, and Deinocheirus.

It looks like a freakin' water dragon

Yeah

Bruh he not Cutest Dinosaurs There Compthasarus

Not proven

@@sKiz0000 still, he should put one of the two options in the video

@@sKiz0000 99,9% proved, oxalaia its a spinosaurus, they have the same fossils

@@esmerald6627 lol no

@@sKiz0000 they have the same mouth bones, and Brazil and Africa was close, on cretaceous period

Gracias!!

No it wasn’t, Iguanodon was.

@@QuokkaCore rlly?

Eu tava pensando isso agora

@@daviono6146 que legal 😄

​@@Mesozoic_WorldI don't know if you have seen it but that video is out now oh his channel.

Yes,my boy torvo the king of jurassic💪💪(sharing throne with stegosauruds and sauropods)

how Torvosaurus got love. He showed torvo at only 10 meters but in reality it's 11.4 meters

I thought Bolsonaro was the reason

​​@@MarioLanzas. the squid is worse

YES ​@@lhamaseveramenteirritada9760

Gracias!!

Así es

@@MarioLanzas. puedes hacer sobre tyrannosaurios basales?

Hablas español 😮

Ojalá

how let's go mario lanzas to 1million

Also do u 🤔 dandakosaurus is a megalosauroid/basal tetanurean?

Same

Suchomimus holotype is 11.7 meters (39 feet ) long and 5.2 tons and it's already a subadult. Full grown adults could grow to be 14-15 metres long or similar to spinosaurus in length but suchomimus would be taller at head and heavier than spino

@@zebgiganotosaurusgaming heavier? Nah, spinosaurs was much heavier than the poor new reconstruction are making it out to be, spinosaurus was at least 16 meters in length and at 7 tons of weight

@@mlggodzilla1567 Spinosaurus is 15 meters long and 8 tons not 16 dude

@@zebgiganotosaurusgaming even when considering irritator's skull as a better comparison to estimate spinosaurus's size, rather than using suchomimus or baryonix, soinosaurus size still comes at more than 15 meters
