Abstract Adaptation to specialist ecological niches is a key innovation that has contributed to the evolutionary success of many vertebrate clades, underpinning the acquisition of diverse skull morphologies. Dinosaurs, which dominated Mesozoic terrestrial faunas, acquired herbivory multiple times, and evolution of these herbivorous adaptations is ...

O filogenezie dinozaurów ptasiomiedniczych (Ornithischia) [PDF]
The ornithischian dinosaurs are analysed using the cladistic methodology. The preferred hypothesis (see fig. 1) is that: 1. Ornithischia are monophyletic, 2. Ankylosauria are sister group of all other ornithischians, 3.
