Pneumatic postcranial bones in dinosaurs and other archosaurs

, 1993
Bibliography: p. 290-317Among amniotes, pneumatic postcranial bones are shared by Aves, Theropoda, Sauropoda, and Pterosauria. Comparison of pneumatic characters in the vertebrae of birds and non-avian dinosaurs demonstrates that the Theropoda and the ...

VIII. On the vertebral characters of the order pterosauria, as exemplified in the genera pterodactylus (cuvier) and dimorphodon (Owen) [PDF]

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London
Abstract Although the skeletons of the extinct Flying Saurians of the mezozoic strata have been discovered in a more complete condition than those of any other contemporary Reptiles, they have not, hitherto, owing to the delicate texture and commonly crushed state of the bones, afforded satisfactory observations of the structure of ...
