The Phylogeny of Ceratosauria (Dinosauria: Theropoda)

Journal of Systematic Palaeontology, 2008
Synopsis Recent discoveries and analyses have drawn increased attention to Ceratosauria, a taxonomically and morphologically diverse group of basal theropods. By the time of its first appearance in the Late Jurassic, the group was probably globally distributed.

THE DIET OF OSTRICH DINOSAURS (THEROPODA: ORNITHOMIMOSAURIA) [PDF]

open access: yesPalaeontology, 2005
:  The diets of ornithomimosaurian dinosaurs (Theropoda: Ornithomimosauria) have proved to be contentious owing to a dearth of unambiguous evidence in support of carnivory, omnivory or herbivory. Re-assessment of anatomical, taphonomical and palaeoecological evidence, and estimates of daily minimal energy budgets for two derived ornithomimosaurian ...

Kinematic model of tyrannosaurid (dinosauria: theropoda) arctometatarsus function

Journal of Morphology, 2002
AbstractWe present a hypothesis of tyrannosaurid foot function termed the “tensile keystone model,” in which the triangular central metatarsal and elastic ligaments dynamically strengthened the foot. The tyrannosaurid arctometatarsus, in which the central metatarsal is proximally constricted, displays osteological correlates of distal intermetatarsal ...

Did oviraptorosaurs (Dinosauria; Theropoda) inhabit Argentina?

Cretaceous Research, 2007
Abstract In this contribution a putative oviraptorosaurian cervical vertebra discovered in the Campanian-Maastrichtian El Brete Formation from Salta Province, NW Argentina is analysed. Based on the resemblances of this vertebra with those of the basal neoceratosaurian Elaphrosaurus and with the noasaurid Noasaurus , the Salta specimen is ...

Theropoda

1983
The morphology of theropod locomotion can be derived from that of pseudosuchians. The change from a facultative biped (thecodont) to an obligate theropod biped is understandable in terms of efficiency. Bipedal locomotion is more energy efficient than is a reptilian method of quad­ rupedal locomotion (Hotton 1980).

On the first Baryonychinae (Theropoda, Spinosauridae) teeth from South America

Zootaxa, 2023
We report the first occurrence in South America of spinosaurid specimens belonging to the clade Baryonychinae. The material comprises three tooth crowns recovered from the Lower Cretaceous (Berriasian–Valanginian) of the Feliz Deserto Formation, State of Sergipe, northeast Brazil.

Osteohistology ofConfuciusornis sanctus(Theropoda: Aves)

Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology, 2003
ABSTRACT An analysis of 80 thin-sections of the long bones of a relatively large and presumably adult specimen of Confuciusornis sanctus, a basal bird from the Early Cretaceous of China, reveals osteohistological patterns similar in some ways to those of extant birds of approximate size, but different in other ways.
