Megapnosaurus rhodesiensis (Raath 1969, renamed by Ivie, Slipinski & Wegrzynowicz, in 2001, early Jurassic, 3m estimated length) 30 individuals were found in a fossil bed. According to Wikipedia, "Over the years paleontologists assigned this genus to Ceratosauridae (Welles, 1984), Procompsognathidae (Parrish and Carpenter, 1986) and Ceratosauria (Gauthier, 1986). Most recently, it has been assigned to Coelophysidae by Tykoski and Rowe (2004), Ezcurra and Novas (2007) and Ezcurra (2007), which is the current scientific consensus."
