Note on update: Because of limitations of time (specifically, the need to get the revised site completed as soon as possible), the theropoda have so far only been completely revised as far as the Carcharodontosaurs. Also, some taxon pages, like the Herrerasauridae and Carcharodontosaurinae, are very incomplete, essentially just holding pages. As Palaeos moves from a single authored to a community authored project, these various matters can be addressed. MAK120310
