Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 8, Issue 1, January/February 2022., 2022 Abstract A total of 227 theropod teeth have so far been recovered from the upper Campanian Laño site (northern Iberian Peninsula). The teeth were studied for their qualitative and quantitative features. From the theropod sample found at Laño, seven morphotypes attributed to five taxa are identified: a medium to large abelisaurid (Arcovenator sp.) and ...

The phylogenetic affinities of the bizarre Late Cretaceous Romanian theropod Balaur bondoc (Dinosauria, Maniraptora): dromaeosaurid or flightless bird? [PDF]
PeerJ, 2015 The exceptionally well-preserved Romanian dinosaur Balaur bondoc is the most complete theropod known to date from the Upper Cretaceous of Europe. Previous studies of this remarkable taxon have included its phylogenetic interpretation as an aberrant ...

The endocranium and trophic ecology of Velociraptor mongoliensis
Journal of Anatomy, Volume 237, Issue 5, Page 861-869, November 2020., 2020 We reconstructed the brain cavity and inner ear of Velociraptor to better understand its lifestyle and hunting abilities. We found brain structures that are present in modern birds, indicating an exceptional sense of balance and agility. The inner ear also closely resembles that of flightless birds, and Velociraptor had a similar hearing ability to ...

A new small deinonychosaur (Dinosauria: Theropoda) from the Late Cretaceous of Patagônia, Argentina
Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2011 Here we report on a new small deinonychosaurian theropod, Pamparaptor micros gen. et sp. nov., from the Late Cretaceous of Patagônia, Argentina. Pamparaptor micros exhibits a pedal structure previously unknown among South Américan deinonychosaurians. The

Morphological disparity in theropod jaws: comparing discrete characters and geometric morphometrics
Palaeontology, Volume 63, Issue 2, Page 283-299, March 2020., 2020 Abstract Disparity, the diversity of form and function of organisms, can be assessed from cladistic or phenetic characters, and from discrete characters or continuous characters such as landmarks, outlines, or ratios. But do these different methods of assessing disparity provide comparable results?
