From Roberto Takata on DINOSAUR:

A group of paleontologist of Luteran University at Cachoeira do Sul anounced that a fossil finding could represent a new species of Triassic carnivorous saurischian dinosaurs.

The specimen resembles a big herrarasaurid/staurikosaurid. Vertebrae, teeth, phalanges, limb components and others yet unindentified bones was found - together they suggest a 5m-long animal.
