Measurements in this table were obtained from [17], [18], [25].

Comparisons of hind limb length ratios of allosaurid and neovenatorid theropod dinosaurs. Asterisks (*) mark lengths taken from published illustrations. A length averaged is indicated (∼) due to missing elements. Unknown measurements (un). Measurements in (mm).
