It's like the ABSRDists saying of course Longisquama is an archosaur(-iform) - it has an antorbital fenestra and external mandibular fenestra. Even if it had these characters (which is doubtful), they're only a couple out of hundreds which really should be used to determine phylogeny. Another issue is that these characters are just as congruent with pterosaurs being sister to archosauriforms, as in Renesto and Binelli's (2006) cladogram.Mickey Mortimerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08831823442911513851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5519292617097628087.post-10613476192671738942010-12-15T01:52:39.800-07:002010-12-15T01:52:39.800-07:00The journal name is Palaeodiversity.
