UMNH VP 1657, 1528, 5599 (up to 5 elements) | |
| Late Jurassic | Allosaurus jimmadseni (“Big Al”) |
multiple elements | Hanna (2002) | MOR 693 |

*Reported by Moodie (1926), but the diagnosis of osteomyelitis is from Rothschild (1997). The lack of crateriform lesions and Moodie’s description of the concentric arrangement around vascular channels suggests that this may be callus development associated with fracture repair.
