RE: noasaurids strikes back
The true position of the claws is not minor in significance. It has deep
phylogenetic and functional implicances. For example, the change in position
of the Megaraptor claw, from the pes to the manus, was an important part of
the data that removed this taxon from Maniraptora to drop it to the basal
tetanuran bag! You will see it soon in the last Ameghiniana. Sebastian.
We must be cautious but this MUST be carefully researched, especially in
disarticulated taxa.
