For this update I'm separating the C. dentisulcatus skeletal from the growth mashup so it can receive the rigorous skeletal treatment. For those looking for the (now renamed) growth series, you can find it here: [link] Although not as long as a full grown Allosaurus, this larger (full grown?) Ceratosaurus could probably have held its own just fine for the most part. Also, the preserved scapula is actually a right rather than a left, but I am showing it as a left for clarity. Or out of laziness, take your pick.

P.S. While no pelvis has been published, it may not be as completely unknown as the rigorous skeletal suggests. Just say'in.

Thanks! FWIW the one on the top is the same specimen, just with the missing pieces blacked out.

The illustrations I remember - from way back in the day of pronated hands, scaly raptors, and T. rex being the biggest baddest dino ever - give it a small-ish head resembling that of a Carnotaurus or another abelisaurid. Your skull is a lot longer and robust.

judging from the skull shape it would probably had a more powerful bite than allosaurus, but then again carnosaurs are known for weak bites so I guess any large predator would have a more powerful bite

Is it OK if I can use this skeletal as a reference?

Thank in advance.

Wow, i reckon some tyrannosaurid-like proportions in this guy, especially regarding the size of the skull relative to the body... Maybe it's a trend among giant theropods?

So the bottom skeleton is a speculative complete one?
