Riparovenator

“Riverbank hunter”

SpinoD-BaryonN-CeratoN

L: 10m - W: 1.4-2t

Britain-Early Cretaceous

Previous: Ostafrikasaurus crassiserratus

Next up: Riojavenatrix lacustris

Yes, I’m actually continuing this. The other parts of the collection are on my alt but I can just make a new post with them if you want to.

“East-African lizard”

SpinoD (?)

L: 10.3m - W: 2-3t

Tanzania-Jurassic (149mya)

Previous: Ceratosuchops inferodios

Next up: Riparovenator milnerae

I know there’s a ton of debate on this guy but he’s currently considered a Spinosaurid by most so…

If there are any inaccuracies in the description, let me know it

Edit: I used the Angaturama Holotype, it should be SMNS 58022 for Irritator not USP GP/2T-5

If you want the sizes, I gotchu

Spinosaurus aegyptiacus-14.5 Meters, 8.35 Tonnes

Suchomimus tenerensis-12.14 Meters, 5.4 Tonnes

Siggilmassasaurus brevicolis-11.7 Meters, 4.7 Tonnes

Riparovenator milnerae-10.54 Meters, 3.32 Tonnes

Oxalaia quilombensis-10.3 Meters, 3.32 Tonnes

Baryonyx walkeri-8.5 Meters,1.7-2.5 Tonnes

Ichthyovenator laosensis-8.5 Meters, 2.2 Tonnes

Irritator challlengeri-5.6? Meters, 1 Tonne

And no shitty tooth taxons are allowed here(Yeah may seem hypocritical to say that while adding Oxalaia and Siggilmassasaurus but Siggilmassasaurus is a cooler name than Spinosaurus and I wanted to use a quad Spino somehow)

All these drawings are based on these wonderful skeletals

Big boys

Baryonyichinae is a clade of Spinosaurid Theropods consisting off

• Baryonyx

• Ceratosuchops

• Riparovenator

• Iberospinus

• Suchomimus

These 5 all share similarities,their very tally built with every member exceeding 3 Meters in Height and they had LONG and powerful arms and if Suchomimus is a base they also had massive shoulder bones that probably anchored massive muscles,now(Excluding Suchomimus) most of them were probably swimmers and fish eaters but if they NEEDED to hunt land prey this is a theory I made on how they hunted

Their shoulder bones allowed them to move their hands forwards Backwards but most importantly to the side

So…..that got me thinking about how they hunted prey

I will use Ceratosuchops and Brighstoneus as a base

Part 1:Ceratosuchops stalks a herd of Brightstoneus

Part 2:Ceratosuchops goes for the chase

Part 3:Ceratosuchops singles into a single Brighstoneus

Part 4:Ceratosuchops runs over Brighstoneus and then….

BAM

Ceratosuchops digs it’s claws deep into the Brighstoneus’s Shoulders and immobilizes the Brighstoneus before biting down onto the Brighstoneus’s neck and killing it

This is my theory on how Baryonychinae Spinosaurids ate

And all 5 lived with smaller ornithopods they could reasonably hunt

Baryonyx lived with Mantellisaurus(Which is evidently hunted)

Iberispinus lived with an unamed Iguanodon species the same size as Mantellisaurus

Ceratosuchops lived with Brighstoneus and Mantellisaurus and Riparovenator could have hunted Iguanodon(If Dan Folkes’s Riparovenator is accurate)

Suchomimus lived with both Ouranosaurus and Lurdusaurus

BUT HEY THAT’S JUST A THEORY,A DINOSAUR THEORY
