	sauropodomorpha
		Sauropodomorpha is composed of the sauropods and their basal relatives, known informally as prosauropods, a broad group of in general unaccountably poorly-known early quadrupedal long-necked herbivores.
		Because I believe a "prosauropod" was the ancestor of the sauropods, I do not consider Prosauropoda to be a natural, monophyletic (including all descendants) group, and reserve the term as an informal name for this assortment of MTr-EJ dinosaurs that aren't sauropods but aren't members of another dinosaur group either.
		Sauropodomorpha: With the demolition of Prosauropoda as a separate group, the following animals cover a wide range of sizes, times, places, and probably habits.

	Sauropodomorpha Information
		The Sauropodomorpha were a group of long-necked, herbivorous dinosaurs that eventually dropped down on all fours and became the largest animals that ever the walked the earth.
		Sauropodomorpha is one of the two major groups (clades) within the order Saurischia.
		In Linnaean taxonomy, Sauropodomorpha (which means "lizard feet forms") is either a suborder or is left unranked.

		Sauropodomorpha was coined as both a node- and stem-based taxon by Salgado et al.
		Sereno (1998) used a node-based definition, because it allowed the formation of a node-stem triplet identifying a major basal division of Sauropodomorpha into Prosauropoda and Sauropoda.
		The active definition for Sauropodomorpha, thus, is a first-order revision of the stem-based definition in Upchurch (1997) and Galton and Upchurch (2004) but employs more deeply nested specifiers.

		In addition to the invaluable human resources of both institutions, the availability of resources and the support given to the graduate students is hard to match.
		Sauropodomorpha is one of the three major clades of Dinosauria, and is among the most spectacular groups of vertebrates, including the largest terrestrial animals recorded in the history of life.
		Moreover, Sauropodomorpha was one of the two dominant clades of Mesozoic herbivorous vertebrates for 160 million years (from the Late Triassic to the Late Cretaceous).

	Palaeos Vertebrates 330.100 Sauropodomorpha : Prosauropoda
		At the time of this writing (7/00), the unofficial Chief Panjandrum of the Basal Sauropodomorpha is Professor Michael Benton of the University of Bristol.
		That is, Sauropodomorpha (considered as, say, the last common ancestor of Plateosaurus and Alamosaurus and all of its descendants) may be synonymous with Saurischia or Dinosauria.
		Discussion: Originally considered the most primitive suborder of Sauropodomorpha, the Prosauropoda are now either considered a paraphyletic assemblage of early sauropodamorpha, or, more usually a sister clade to the sauropoda proper.

		Sauropods may have been gigantothermic; that is, their bodies were huge and could not lose heat from the surface of their bodies as fast as it was produced inside.

		Some dispute if Sauropodomorpha is even a valid group and others suggest that Prosauropoda is not a clade but a plesion - that is the prosauropods can be arranged in a sequence getting progressively closer in morphology to the true sauropods.
		Be that as it may it is convenient for us to consider prosauropods and sauropods separately as two groups.
		However if Sauropodomorpha is a clade then the two groups would share a common ancestor.

		Taxon that had the same “parent,” or ancestral group, as another taxon and split from that ancestral group, e.g., Sauropodomorpha is a sister group to Theropoda because they both have a saurischian ancestor.
		Clade of ornithischian dinosaurs, characterized by dermal armor, typically present as osteoderms in rows parallel to the midline of the body and a well-developed postorbital process associated with the jugal and a palpebral (supraorbital bone).
		Clade of saurischian dinosaurs, placed with clades Sauropodomorpha and Sauropoda, distinguished by dermal armor (osteoderms) and procoelous caudal vertebrae.

	Introduction to Prosauropods
		Their name "prosauropods" means "before the sauropods", and refers to the belief that this group is ancestral to the Sauropoda.
		They are usually classified as an infraorder of Sauropodomorpha, which includes the sauropods and belongs to the larger group Saurischia.
		Also check out the Sauropodomorpha page in the Dinosauricon, by Mike Keesey; it includes current classification hypotheses for the group as well as basic facts on each genus.

	Systematics of the Dinosauria
		The etymology behind the two names ("bird-hipped" vs. "lizard-hipped") is not very accurate, since some saurischians had bird-like hips, and ornithischians' hips were somewhat birdlike due to convergent evolution, not due to direct ancestry.
		Sauropodomorpha is the first group, and includes both the "prosauropods" — a probably paraphyletic (artificial) group of largely herbivorous, dominantly quadrupedal dinosaurs such as Plateosaurus; and the Sauropoda: long-necked, long-tailed, enormous herbivorous dinosaurs like Apatosaurus (formerly called Brontosaurus), Brachiosaurus, and Diplodocus.
		Theropoda is the second saurischian group, consisting of the carnivorous dinosaurs.

		Plateosaurus may have congregated in herds, and may have migrated seasonally across the arid (dry) European landscape during the late Triassic period.
		Plateosaurus was a sauropodomorpha, whose intelligence (as measured by its relative brain to body weight, or EQ) was the lowest among the dinosaurs.

	Therizinosauria [The Dinosauricon]
		If this assignment is correct, the species would represent the oldest known neotetanuran, and would push the divergence points for many clades back to times earlier than typically thought.
		The similarities of Therizinosauria to other dinosaurian taxa (Ornithischia, basal Sauropodomorpha) are due to convergence, possibly since derived therizinosaurs may have been herbivorous, like members of those taxa.
		This may explain the uncharacteristically long necks and large abdominal areas (caused by retroversion of the pubes).
