Applying Sereno's definitions to Neotetanurae: Part 2
Based on the analysis in my prior e-mail, the following conclusions apply.
Summary of changes to definitions needed if all published phylogenies based
on matrices are to maintain compositional accuracy. The taxa surrounded by
asterisks are those I recommend adding or replacing Sereno's taxa with.
Allosauridae (Allosaurus fragilis <- Sinraptor dongi, Carcharodontosaurus
saharicus, *Tyrannosaurus rex*, Passer domesticus)
Tyrannosauroidea (Tyrannosaurus rex <- *Allosaurus fragilis*, Ornithomimus
edmontonicus, *Oviraptor philoceratops*, Troodon formosus, Velociraptor
mongoliensis)
Compsognathidae (Compsognathus longipes <- *Tyrannosaurus rex*, Passer
domesticus)
Alvarezsauridae (*Alvarezsaurus calvoi* <- Tyrannosaurus rex, Ornithomimus
edmontonicus, Therizinosaurus cheloniformis, Oviraptor philoceratops,
Troodon formosus, Passer domesticus)
Caenagnathoidea (*Caenagnathus collinsi* + Oviraptor philoceratops)
Caenagnathidae (*Caenagnathus collinsi* <- Oviraptor philoceratops,
*Ornithomimus velox*)
Oviraptorinae (Oviraptor philoceratops *<* *Ingenia yanshini*)
Eumaniraptora (Deinonychus antirrhopus + Passer domesticus, - *Ornithomimus
velox*)
Troodontidae (Troodon formosus <- *Tyrannosaurus rex*, Ornithomimus
edmontonicus, *Oviraptor philoceratops*, Velociraptor mongoliensis, Passer
domesticus)
Dromaeosauridae (Dromaeosaurus albertensis <- *Tyrannosaurus rex*,
Ornithomimus edmontonicus, Troodon formosus, Passer domesticus)
Unenlagiinae (Unenlagia comahuensis <- Microraptor zhaoianus, Velociraptor
mongoliensis, Dromaeosaurus albertensis, *Archaeopteryx lithographica*,
Passer domesticus)
Archaeopterygidae (Archaeopteryx lithographica <- *Confuciusornis sanctus*,
Passer domesticus)
Confuciusornithidae (Confuciusornis sanctus <- *Enantiornis leali*, Passer
domesticus)
Enantiornithes (*Enantiornis leali* <- *Confuciusornis sanctus*, Passer
domesticus)
Summary of published topologies based on matrices where two active names are
objective synonyms, with the suggested preference given as: senior synonym >
junior synonym. So if these ever need registered, there's a suggested
order.
(Passer (Sinraptor, Carcharodontosaurus, Allosaurus, Tyrannosaurus))
Neotetanurae > Tyrannoraptora
(Passer (Ornithomimus, Tyrannosaurus)) Maniraptoriformes > Tyrannoraptora
(Tyrannosaurus, Shuvuuia, Therizinosaurus, Oviraptor, Troodon, Passer
(Ornithomimus)) Ornithomimosauria > Ornithomimiformes
(Passer (Ornithomimus, Oviraptor)) Ornithomimiformes = Oviraptoriformes
(Nothronychus (Therizinosaurus, Beipiaosaurus)) Therizinosauridae >
Therizinosauroidea
(Tyrannosaurus, Ornithomimus, Therizinosaurus, Troodon, Passer (Oviraptor))
Oviraptorosauria > Oviraptoriformes
(Passer (Ornithomimus, Oviraptor)) Maniraptora > Paraves
(Passer (Archaeopteryx, Deinonychus)) Aves > Eumaniraptora
(Passer (Archaeopteryx, Iberomesornis)) Aves > Ornithothoraces
(Passer (Archaeopteryx, Sinornis)) Ornithurae > Euornithes
Clades found in at least three published phylogenies based on separate
matrices which currently lack an active name, with suggested names included.
I didn't include phylogenies where a compositionally identical clade is
named with the opposite kind of definition (node vs. stem). So for
instance, if we have (Passer (Sinraptor, Allosaurus), a separate name for
the Sinraptor + Allosaurus clade isn't needed because Allosauroidea (as
defined Allosaurus <- Passer) covers it (though it's technically not the
same clade). But if we have (Passer (Monolophosaurus (Sinraptor,
Allosaurus))), the Sinraptor + Allosaurus clade lacks an applicable name.
Only the latter cases are listed below.
