Gigantoscelus

Gigantoscelus ("giant shin") is a dubious genus of basal sauropodomorph dinosaur from the Early Jurassic of South Africa.
Classification.
It was first described by van Hoepen in 1916 on the basis of TrM 65, a distal femur from the Bushveld Sandstone Formation of South Africa. It was later synonymized with "Euskelosaurus" by van Heerden (1979), but was subsequently treated as a "nomen dubium" in the 2nd edition of the "Dinosauria".
Stratigraphy.
The type horizon of "Gigantoscelus", the Bushveld Sandstone, was thought to be Late Triassic, but is now considered Early Jurassic (Hettangian-Sinemurian) in age.
