Tratayenia
(Tratayenia rosalesi)
Discovered in Argentina and formally described in 2018, Tratayenia was a large megaraptoran theropod from the Late Cretaceous.
Like other megaraptors, its most formidable weapons were its powerful forelimbs and enormous hand claws rather than its jaws — a hunting strategy quite unlike that of the more famous large theropods of the north!
