From Wikipedia:
"Herrerasaurus has been classified as either an early theropod or an early saurischian in at least five recent reviews of theropod evolution".

Chill. I didn't say it was a prosauropod. It isn't. It might be an early theropod, sure. Or neither a theropod or a prosauropod.

@your comment: Ok sure. Seriously, it was hypothesized to be a basal sauropodomorph as mentioned in Wikipedia. --EP

Actually, when it was first discovered, it was thought to be a theropod. It was then reclassified as a prosauropod. It is currently unclear if it is a true theropod or not, but it is certainly not a prosauropod.
By AgeDoubleYou
That's ok. What I meant was that it is not certain that it was actually a theropod, it may be just as closely related to sauropods, even if it doesn't look like it.

Nice work, although, if I remember correctly, it's position as a theropod is disputable?
