Dubious, uncertain, and invalid genera
- Angaturama limai: Only known from the tip of the snout. It may belong to the contemporary Irritator, but it could also represent its own taxon.
- "Bayosaurus pubica": An abelisaurid known from partial postcranial remains.
- Gnathovorax cabreirai: Known from a well-preserved, almost complete specimen. It may not be a dinosaur.
- Herrerasaurus ischigualastensis: The type genus of a family of basal predators called herrerasaurids. They may represent early dinosaurs, possibly saurischians, but they could also be just outside Dinosauria.
- Oxalaia quilombensis: Potentially a junior synonym of Spinosaurus.
- Sanjuansaurus gordilloi: A herrerasaurid that, like the other members of its group, could be non-dinosaurian.
- Taurovenator violantei: Only known from a single postorbital, it may be a junior synonym of Mapusaurus.
- "Ubirajara jubatus": Known from a single specimen that preserves impressions of feathers, including display feathers on its sides. Its description was retracted before it could be published due to allegations that the specimen was illegally exported from Brazil.
Timeline
This is a timeline of selected dinosaurs from the list above. Time is measured in Ma, megaannum, along the x-axis. Carnivores are shown in red, herbivores in green and omnivores in blue.
