Abstract

Benson et al . (Brevia, 26 March 2010, p. 1613) reported on an Australian tyrannosauroid, represented by a pubis from the late Early Cretaceous of Victoria. However, our examination of this specimen reveals that the critical character used for this referral is not present. We contend that the bone likely belongs to a currently recognized group of Australian theropod or another group not currently known.
