Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.Layer‐by‐layer passive ex vivo assessment of flexion–extension‐dominant limb joint ROM across rabbit, pudu deer, chilla fox and pig revealed joint‐, tissue‐ and taxon‐specific responses to progressive tissue removal. Proximal joints often showed increasing ROM, whereas distal joints often showed non‐monotonic responses.

, 2013 Although consensus exists among authors that birds evolved from coelurosaurian theropods, paleontologists still debate the identification of the group of coelurosaurians that most closely approaches the common ancestor of birds.

A large abelisaurid (Dinosauria, Theropoda) from Morocco and comments on the Cenomanian theropods from North Africa [PDF]
, 2016 We describe the partially preserved femur of a large-bodied theropod dinosaur from the Cenomanian “Kem Kem Compound Assemblage” (KKCA) of Morocco. The fossil is housed in the Museo Geologico e Paleontologico “Gaetano Giorgio Gemmellaro” in Palermo (Italy)

The last non-avian theropods of Europe: Palaeoecology and Biogeography inferred from dental records from the uppermost Maastrichtian of Catalonia, Spain [PDF]
Non-avian theropods were essential components of terrestrial ecosystems during the Mesozoic, were highly diverse in size and lifestyles across different regions of the planet.

Unusual pectoral apparatus in a predatory dinosaur resolves avian wishbone homology
Scientific Reports, 2021 The furcula is a distinctive element of the pectoral skeleton in birds, which strengthens the shoulder region to withstand the rigor of flight. Although its origin among theropod dinosaurs is now well-supported, the homology of the furcula relative to ...

NEW ABELISAURID MATERIAL FROM THE UPPER CRETACEOUS (CENOMANIAN) OF MOROCCO
Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2011 Fragmentary cranial bones of dinosaur origin have been recently recovered from the Kem Kem beds (Upper Cretaceous, Cenomanian) of Morocco. They include two incompletely preserved maxillary bones evidencing diagnostic features of abelisaurid theropods ...

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 11, Page 3137-3168, November 2026.Abstract The Upper Cretaceous São José do Rio Preto Formation (Bauru Group, southeastern Brazil) has yielded a fragmentary but taxonomically diverse record of titanosaur sauropods, although elements from cervical series remain scarce. Here, we describe a nearly complete sauropod axis from the Vila Ventura Paleontological Area, representing an uncommon ...

Osteohistology of two phorusrhacids reveals uninterrupted growth strategy
The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 11, Page 3106-3122, November 2026.Abstract Phorusrhacidae were apex predators that primarily dominated South America ecosystems for at least 40 million years with their imposing size and predatory lifestyle—yet some aspects of their biology remain poorly understood. Osteohistology is a tool for understanding growth dynamics and biomechanical adaptations.
