Tetanurae, etc.

Hi,
        Fun SVP meeting.  Quick, trivial question: Are members of Tetanurae
properly called tetanurans or tetanurines?  Or what?  I've it differently
in several places and am not sure why.   Ditto for Avialae -- avialans or
avialians?  Avialines?  Avialidinians?   Oh my.   My latin/greek-recalling
brain cells have died a much lamented death... those valiant, hapless
martyrs.
