Data from: Linking the evolution of body shape and locomotor biomechanics in bird-line archosaurs
Locomotion in living birds (Neornithes) has two remarkable features: feather-assisted flight, and the use of unusually crouched hindlimbs for bipedal support and movement.

A review of paravian phylogeny with new data
Paraves are theropod dinosaurs comprising of living and fossil birds and their closest fossil relatives, the dromaeosaurid and troodontid dinosaurs. Traditionally, birds have been recovered as the sister group to Deinonychosauria, the clade made up of ...

The evolution of birds from non-flying theropod dinosaurs is a fantastic example of flight evolution and has been studied for over 150 years. Unfortunately, a deeper understanding of early theropod flight has been frustrated by gaps in the fossil record ...

Bayesian inference of paravian phylogeny with the theropod working group dataset
Paraves, traditionally known to comprise Dromaeosauridae, Troodontidae and Avialae, is among the most well-studied dinosaur groups thanks to its importance in investigating the dinosaur-bird transition.

Phylogenetic relationships of paravian theropods
Coelurosauria is the most diverse clade of theropod dinosaurs, with much of that diversity present in Paraves—the clade of dinosaurs containing dromaeosaurids, troodontids, and birds (avialans).
