My analysis (using all Mesozoic theropods) now places both _Bahariasaurus_ and _Deltadromeus_ in non-Abelisauridae Ceratosauria, often close to _Elaphrosaurus_.<br />There are not characters showing unequivocally that they're distinct. The absence of shared derived characters does not justify their separation.

More recently, I refrain from synonymizing them as there are no shared derived characters in the holotypes.<br /><br />Also, regarding Wilson et al.'s and Carrano and Sampson's analysis, they suffer from the same problem Rauhut's did.
