Body size and evolutionary rate analyses reveal complex evolutionary history of Alvarezsauria
Cladistics, Volume 41, Issue 1, Page 135-155, February 2025.Abstract Some of the smallest examples of dinosaurian body size are from alvarezsaurians, an enigmatic group of maniraptoran coelurosaurians with a peculiar combination of anatomical features unique among theropods. Despite the large number of alvarezsaurian species described worldwide and the increased understanding this has provided, the body‐size ...
