Taphonomic damage obfuscates interpretation of the retroarticular region of the Asteriornis mandible

A. Crane, J. Benito, A. Chen, G. Musser, C. R. Torres, J. A. Clarke, S. Lautenschlager, D. T. Ksepka, D. J. Field

The paper reinterprets the retroarticular region of Asteriornis mandible, showing taphonomic damage obscured its morphology, and updates phylogenetic analysis to support its placement as a total-group galloanseran.

The first dinosaur egg remains a mystery

L. J. Legendre, D. Rubilar-Rogers, A. O. Vargas, J. A. Clarke

The paper reanalyzes reptile eggshell data to assess the ancestral condition of dinosaur eggs, finding that previous conclusions about soft-shelled eggs were influenced by methodological biases.

Convergent regulatory evolution and the origin of flightlessness in palaeognathous birds

T. B. Sackton, P. Grayson, A. Cloutier, Z. Hu, J. S. Liu, N. E. Wheeler, P. P. Gardner, J. A. Clarke, A. J. Baker, M. Clamp, S. V. Edwards

This study shows that convergent flightlessness in palaeognathous birds is associated with regulatory changes rather than protein-coding gene evolution.
