DD1991 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 A new paper is online that you may find interesting: Matías J. Motta; Federico L. Agnolín; Federico Brissón Egli; Fernando E. Novas (2020). New theropod dinosaur from the Upper Cretaceous of Patagonia sheds light on the paravian radiation in Gondwana. The Science of Nature 107 (3): Article number 24. doi:10.1007/s00114-020-01682-1. The recovery of Overoraptor as sister to Rahonavis in a clade sister to Avialae shows that not all non-pygostylian paravians were unenlagiids. If this phylogenetic placement holds water, then Rahonaviformes Livezey and Zusi, 2007 and Rahonavidae Livezey and Zusi, 2007 are available names for the Rahonavis+Overoraptor clade. B. C. Livezey and R. L. Zusi. 2007. Higher-order phylogeny of modern birds (Theropoda, Aves: Neornithes) based on comparative anatomy. II. Analysis and discussion. Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 149(1):1-95 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
