Fossilized skin reveals coevolution with feathers and metabolism in feathered dinosaurs and early birds
Feathers are remarkable evolutionary innovations that are associated with complex adaptations of the skin in modern birds. Fossilised feathers in non-avian dinosaurs and basal birds provide insights into feather evolution, but how associated integumentary adaptations evolved is unclear. Here we repo...
