This article records new taxa of fossil archosaurs of every kind that are scheduled described during the year 2021, as well as other significant discoveries and events related to paleontology of archosaurs that are scheduled to occur in the year 2021.
Because humans have encountered fossils for millennia, paleontology has a long history both before and after becoming formalized as a science. This article records significant discoveries and events related to paleontology that occurred or were published in the year 2021.
Mar 20, 2020 · The tarsus of archosaurs – crocodilians, birds, non-avian dinosaurs and several other extinct clades – and their most immediate precursors has been one of the most deeply studied anatomical regions...
Nov 16, 2022 · Because of its phylogenetic position as sister clade to Avemetatarsalia, the brain morphology of crocodilians (and Pseudosuchia in general) has usually been considered to be the archosaurian ancestral condition.
This article records new taxa of every kind of fossil archosaur that were scheduled to be described during 2023, as well as other significant discoveries and events related to the paleontology of archosaurs that were published in 2023.

INTRODUCTION. The evolution of terrestrial locomotion in “ruling reptiles” (Archosauria) across the Mesozoic era is an important macroevolutionary event because of the major innovations in form and function during divergence from the original quadrupedal, possibly semisprawling ancestor, most prominent in dinosaurs (1, 2).
Jul 28, 2023 · The newly-described Mambachiton is significant as the earliest known member of the bird line of archosaur evolution and because it has armour, a rare feature in bird-line archosaurs....
This article records new taxa of fossil archosaurs of every kind that are scheduled described during the year 2021, as well as other significant discoveries and events related to paleontology of archosaurs that are scheduled to occur in the year 2021.
Nov 1, 2001 · The basic structure of archosaurian phylogeny is understood to include two primary crown-group lineages—one leading to living crocodiles and including a broad diversity of Triassic animals (e.g.,...
