Trivia

• Dr. Taylor's arcade comments:
  • Original: 発見された頭のほねには、たくさんのしわが入っている。肉食恐竜だが歯は小さかったようだ。
  • Translation: Its skull has a lot of wrinkles. It looks like a small carnivore.
• It is the fourth Bronze rarity Wind Dinosaur card in the arcade.
• Like its relative Rajasaurus, it is inaccurately depicted with long arms and three-fingered hands when it, as an abelisaur, should be depicted with much shorter arms with four fingers (in total) like Carnotaurus.
