Neovenatorid theropods are apex predators in the Late Cretaceous of North America

Nature Communications, 4(1).

MeSH headings : Animals; Dinosaurs; Food Chain; Fossils; North America; Paleontology; Phylogeny; Predatory Behavior
TL;DR: Siats meekerorum, a giant new North American allosauroid from the Late Cretaceous, is described, demonstrating that this clade co-occurred with and competitively excluded smaller tyrannosaurs, and support the hypothesis that extinction of Allosauroidea in terrestrial ecosystems of North America permitted ecological release of tyrannosAUroids, which went on to dominate end-Cretaceous food webs.
