A study on bone histology of Trialestes romeri, providing evidence of a rapid growth rate, is published by Ponce, Cerda & Desojo (2025). [5]A study on the biodiversity of thalattosuchians throughout their evolutionary history, attempting to identify factors driving thalattosuchian evolution, is published by Forêt et al. (2025).
Archosaurs made more rapid progress towards erect limbs than synapsids, and this gave them greater stamina by avoiding Carrier's constraint. An objection to this explanation is that archosaurs became dominant while they still had sprawling or semi-erect limbs, similar to those of Lystrosaurus and other synapsids. [citation needed]
The "classic" definition of archosaur utilized prior to the widespread use of cladistics is now roughly equivalent to the clade Archosauriformes. [5] Archosaurus is still considered the oldest undisputed archosauriform, as well as one of the few valid members of the family Proterosuchidae .
A study on the morphology of teeth of Europasaurus holgeri is published by Régent et al. (2024), who report evidence interpreted as indicative of the presence of a strong connective tissue that partially covered the teeth, and argue that such structure might have been present in other members of Eusauropoda.

"Rauisuchia" is a paraphyletic group of mostly large and carnivorous Triassic archosaurs. [2] Rauisuchians are a category of archosaurs within a larger group called Pseudosuchia, which encompasses all archosaurs more closely related to crocodilians than to birds and other dinosaurs. First named in the 1940s, Rauisuchia was a name exclusive to ...
A study aiming to determine whether there is a relationship between the volume of lacunae of osteocytes derived from static osteogenesis and biological parameters such as genome size, body mass, growth rate, metabolic rate or red blood cell size in extant birds is published by Grunmeier & D'Emic (2019), who evaluate the implications of their ...
A study on the morphology of dorsal vertebrae of extant and fossil archosaurs, and on its implications for inferring lung structure in non-avian dinosauriform archosaurs, is published by Brocklehurst, Schachner & Sellers (2018). [1] [2]
A study on the morphology, preservation and taphonomy of the skin of Haestasaurus becklesii, and a review of sauropod skin morphology, is published by Pittman et al. (2022). [ 204 ] A study on the anatomy and phylogenetic affinities of Ligabuesaurus leanzai , based on data from new postcranial elements assigned to the holotype specimen and from ...
