One dental condition present in Megalosauridae is multiple enamel wrinkles near the carinae, the sharp edge or serration row of the tooth. Ornamented teeth and a well-marked enamel surface also characterize basal megalosaurids. The ornamentation and well-marked surface appears in early megalosaurids but disappears in derived megalosaurids, suggesting that the condition was lost over time as megalosaurids grew in size.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Classification">Classification</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Megalosauridae&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Classification"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Historical_classification">Historical classification</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Megalosauridae&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Historical classification"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Megalosaurus_femur.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6b/Megalosaurus_femur.jpg/220px-Megalosaurus_femur.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="297" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6b/Megalosaurus_femur.jpg/330px-Megalosaurus_femur.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6b/Megalosaurus_femur.jpg/440px-Megalosaurus_femur.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2076" data-file-height="2801" /></a><figcaption><i>Megalosaurus</i> <a href="/wiki/Femur" title="Femur">femur</a></figcaption></figure> <p>From the family's inception, many specimens found in the field have been wrongly classified as megalosaurids.

In 2002, Ronan Allain redefined the clade after he discovered a complete megalosaurid skull in northwestern France of species <i><a href="/wiki/Poekilopleuron" title="Poekilopleuron">Poekilopleuron</a></i>. Using the characters described in this study, Allain defined Megalosauridae as dinosaurs including <i>Poekilopleuron valesdunesis</i>, now known as <i><a href="/wiki/Dubreuillosaurus" title="Dubreuillosaurus">Dubreuillosaurus</a></i>, <i>Torvosaurus</i>, <i>Afrovenator</i>, and all descendants of their common ancestor. Allain also defined two taxa within Megalosauridae: Torvosaurinae was defined as all Megalosauridae more closely related to <i>Torvosaurus</i> than to <i>Poekilopleuron</i> and <i><a href="/wiki/Afrovenator" title="Afrovenator">Afrovenator</a></i>, and Megalosaurinae was defined as all those that are more closely related to <i>Poekilopleuron</i>.<sup id="cite_ref-:1_3-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:1-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Megalosauridae also falls under the basal clade Megalosauroidea, which also contains <a href="/wiki/Spinosauridae" title="Spinosauridae">Spinosauridae</a>. However, many taxa are still quite unstable and cannot be placed in one clade with absolute certainty. For example, <i>Eustreptospondylus</i> and <i><a href="/wiki/Streptospondylus" title="Streptospondylus">Streptospondylus</a></i>, while they are both defined as Megalosauridae, are often excluded to

Middle Jurassic-era <a href="/wiki/Trace_fossil" title="Trace fossil">tracks</a> believed to have left by megalosaurids have been found at Vale de Meios in Portugal. During the middle Jurassic, this site would have been a tidal flat exposed at low tide on the edge of a lagoon. Unlike most coastal tracks, which are parallel to the coastline and probably left by migrating animals, the Vale de Meios tracks were perpendicular to the coast, with the vast majority oriented towards the lagoon. This indicates that the megalosaurids which would have left these tracks approached the tidal flat once the tide retreated.<sup id="cite_ref-19" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-19"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>19<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>This indicates that megalosaurids could have scavenged for the carcasses of marine creatures left by the receding tides. Another possibility is that megalosaurids were <a href="/wiki/Piscivore" title="Piscivore">piscivorous</a>, approaching the coast to hunt for fish. Spinosaurids, which were close relatives of megalosaurids, had numerous adaptations for piscivory and semiaquatic life, so such a lifestyle is supported by phylogenetic data. Shark teeth, <a href="/wiki/Cartilage" title="Cartilage">cartilage</a> fragments, and <a href="/wiki/Gastrolith" title="Gastrolith">gastroliths</a> have been documented as stomach contents in <i>Poekilopleuron</i>. Both this genus and <i>Dubreuillosaurus</i> were discovered in sediments also preserving mangrove roots, providing further evidence for a coastal habitat. Nevertheless, this does not rule out the possibility that megalosaurids also fed on terrestrial prey.<sup id="cite_ref-20" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-20"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>20<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Palaeogeography">Palaeogeography</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Megalosauridae&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section: Palaeogeography"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Pangaea_continents.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/cb/Pangaea_continents.svg/200px-Pangaea_continents.svg.png" decoding="async" width="200" height="236" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/cb/Pangaea_continents.svg/300px-Pangaea_continents.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/cb/Pangaea_continents.svg/400px-Pangaea_continents.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="815" data-file-height="960" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Pangaea" title="Pangaea">Pangea</a> before the split into <a href="/wiki/Gondwana" title="Gondwana">Gondwana</a> and <a href="/wiki/Laurasia" title="Laurasia">Laurasia</a></figcaption></figure> <p>Species included in Megalosauridae have been found on every modern <a href="/wiki/Continent" title="Continent">continent</a>, split relatively equally between sites on the <a href="/wiki/Gondwana" title="Gondwana">Gondwana</a> and <a href="/wiki/Laurasia" title="Laurasia">Laurasia</a> <a href="/wiki/Supercontinent" title="Supercontinent">supercontinents</a>. <a href="/wiki/Palaeogeography" title="Palaeogeography">Paleogeography</a> findings show that Megalosauridae was mainly restricted to the Middle to <a href="/wiki/Late_Jurassic" title="Late Jurassic">Late Jurassic</a>, suggesting they went extinct at the <a href="/wiki/Jurassic" title="Jurassic">Jurassic</a>-<a href="/wiki/Cretaceous" title="Cretaceous">Cretaceous</a> boundary 145 million years ago.<sup id="cite_ref-:5_10-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:5-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Teeth from the <a href="/wiki/Berriasian" title="Berriasian">Berriasian</a>-<a href="/wiki/Valanginian" title="Valanginian">Valanginian</a> aged <a href="/wiki/Bajada_Colorada_Formation" title="Bajada Colorada Formation">Bajada Colorada Formation</a> in Argentina suggest that the group may have persisted into the Early Cretaceous in South America.<sup id="cite_ref-21" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-21"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The global radiation of these carnivorous <a href="/wiki/Theropoda" title="Theropoda">theropods</a> occurred in two steps.
