Coelurosauria is the most diverse clade of theropod dinosaurs. Much of this diversity is
present in Paraves—the clade of dinosaurs containing dromaeosaurids, troodontids, and …

Inferring the body mass of fossil taxa, such as non‐avian dinosaurs, provides a powerful tool
for interpreting physiological and ecological properties, as well as the ability to study these …

Large-scale adaptive radiations might explain the runaway success of a minority of extant
vertebrate clades. This hypothesis predicts, among other things, rapid rates of morphological …

Dinosauromorpha includes dinosaurs and other much less diverse dinosaur precursors of
Triassic age, such as lagerpetids [1]. Joint occurrences of these taxa with dinosaurs are rare …

Theropod teeth are typically not described in detail, yet these abundant vertebrate fossils are
not only frequently reported in the literature, but also preserve extensive anatomical …

Archaeopteryx is widely accepted as being the most basal bird, and accordingly it is
regarded as central to understanding avialan origins; however, recent discoveries of derived …

Maniraptora includes birds and their closest relatives among theropod dinosaurs,,,,. During
the Cretaceous period, several maniraptoran lineages diverged from the ancestral …

Isolated theropod teeth are some of the most common fossils in the dinosaur fossil record
and are continually reported in the literature. Recently developed quantitative methods have …

We describe the basal sauropodomorph Eoraptor lunensis, based on the nearly complete
holotypic skeleton and referred specimens, all of which were discovered in the Cancha de …

The most comprehensive account of the origin of ancient and modern birds—the" living
dinosaurs." A small set of fossilized bones discovered almost thirty years ago led …
