Abstract: Abstract Caenagnathids were oviraptorosaur theropods characterized by elongate hind limbs that are proposed as adaptations for either wading or enhanced cursoriality. A lack of well preserved pelvic material, however, has thus far prevented reconstruction of… read more here.

Abstract: Evolutionary responses to selection for bipedalism and childbirth have shaped the human pelvis, a structure that differs substantially from that in apes. Morphology related to these factors is present by birth, yet the developmental-genetic mechanisms… read more here.
