troodontids and tympanic recesses
So I was at work the other day looking at Chiappe's (in Witmer & Chiappe
2002) character matrix on page 466, and noticed that he had troodontids down as
having a tympanic recess that invades the columellar. So far as I was aware,
this was still a good avian synapomorphy.
Wanting to check it out, I noticed that the scoring was composite. So I dont
have to wade through all those papers, does anyone know offhand which species
he's talking about, and the relevant cite?
