The Abelisaurs, successful across South America, Africa, India, Madagascar and even some of Europe, this goofy but impressive branch of theropods is by far my favorite group of animals and i just had to work on a lineup of them. from left to right they are:  pycnonemosaurus, carnotaurus, abelisaurus, ekrixinatosaurus, aucasaurus, skorpiovenator, viavenator, quilmesaurus, thanos, ilokelesia, majungasaurus, indosaurus, rajasaurus, rahiolisaurus, arcovenator, genusaurus, chenanisaurus, indosuchus, kryptops, eoabelisaurus, xenotarsosaurus, rugops and tarascosaurus.

Ilokelesia aguadagrandensis

Source: http://aband0ned.net/

Name: Ilokelesia aguadagrandensis 

Name Meaning: Aguada Grande Flesh Lizard 

First Described: 1998

Described By: Coria & Salgado 

Classification: Dinosauria, Saurischia, Theropoda, Neotheropoda, Abelisauridae, Carnotaurinae, Brachyrostra 

Our first Carnotaur! Ilokelesia is from the Cenomanian of the Late Cretaceous, about 95 million years ago. It is known from the Río Limay Formation in the Neuquén Province of Argentina. It was a medium sized abelisaur, about four meeters long, and is known from a fragmented skull and partial post cranial remains. It has some basal features, but this most likely places it in Carnotaurinae. Given its location, it's likely that it is closely related to Carnotaurus itself. 

Not much more is known about this dinosaur.
