Rajasaurus — size comparison — facts and sources
Rajasaurus was a predatory abelisaurid of Late Cretaceous India. It lived when the subcontinent occupied a different position, with its fauna retaining links to Gondwana’s history.
The species was described in 2003 from Lameta Formation fossils around the Narmada valley. Its name references an Indian term for a ruler and the material’s origin. Comparisons with Madagascan and South American abelisaurids help study former biogeographical connections.
