A Jurassic avialan dinosaur from China resolves the early phylogenetic history of birds

open access: yes, 2013
The recent discovery of small paravian theropod dinosaurs with well-preserved feathers in the Middle–Late Jurassic Tiaojishan Formation of Liaoning Province (northeastern China) has challenged the pivotal position of Archaeopteryx regarded from its ...

Cranial osteology of the Early Cretaceous Sapeornis chaoyangensis (Aves: Pygostylia)

open access: yes, 2020
We describe the detailed cranial osteology of Sapeornis chaoyangensis based on information from previously described specimens and IVPP V19058, a specimen that was recently reported with regards to the palatal elements but not fully described.

Potential for Powered Flight Neared by Most Close Avialan Relatives, but Few Crossed Its Thresholds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Uncertainties in the phylogeny of birds (Avialae) and their closest relatives have impeded deeper understanding of early theropod flight. To help address this, we produced an updated evolutionary hypothesis through an automated analysis of the Theropod ...

An insect †Archaeopteryx: Cretaceous amber fossil elucidates the evolution of complex host detection and ovipositor mechanisms in parasitoid woodwasps (Hymenoptera: Orussoidea)

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 3, Page 630-645, July 2025.
We describe †Cretovelona orussopteryx n. gen. & sp. from Kachin amber. The fossil is examined with synchrotron scanning and integrated into an existing morphological data set for Orussoidea. This fossil parasitoid wasp displays a unique character combination demonstrating intermediate conditions in evolving the complex features employed in echo ...

The Impact of Unstable Taxa in Coelurosaurian Phylogeny and Resampling Support Measures for Parsimony Analyses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Paleontological datasets often have large amounts of missing entries that result in multiple mostparsimonious trees. Highly incomplete and conflictive taxa produce a collapsed strict consensus andseveral methods have been developed for identifying these ...

Intraindividual variability of the histological, chronological and growth patterns in post-cranial elements of Liaoningvenator curriei (Paraves: Troodontidae)

open access: yes, 2023
A comprehensive description of the histology of 10 postcranial bones taken from Liaoningvenator curriei (holotype: DNHM D3012) is presented. Corresponding bone samples were sectioned to a thickness of 30 micrometres. The sections were then examined using

Morphological and dental wear pattern analysis of Upper Cretaceous theropod teeth from Central Europe

open access: yes
Theropod teeth have long been known from the Upper Cretaceous of Europe, but the 20 million years long interval spanning the Cenomanian to the Campanian has remained underrepresented in the fossil record and understudied.
