is known from a partial postcranial skeleton from the famous dinosaur beds of Tendaguru, Tanzania. It was first described briefly by Janensch in 1920, followed by a detailed description in 1925 and some additional notes on its anatomy in 1929. In the latter paper, Janensch referred previously unrecognized ribs and pectoral girdle elements, as well as an isolated left radius to the same species. Since the ribs and pectoral girdle are from the type locality and probably even from the type specimen, their referral is accepted here. The radius, however, came from another locality in the Upper Dinosaur beds, while the holotype is from the slightly older Middle Dinosaur beds. Since the radius is, furthermore, not preserved in the type, the element from the Upper Dinosaur beds (MB R. 1755) cannot be shown to belong to
