Assesment and interpretation of negative forelimb allometry in the evolution of non-avian Theropoda
BACKGROUND: The origin of birds is marked by a significant decrease in body size along with an increase in relative forelimb size. However, before the evolution of flight, both traits may have already been related: It has been proposed that an evolutionary trend of negative forelimb allometry existe...
