Phylogenetic affinities of Saltriovenator and evolution of the hand in Theropoda. Reduced strict consensus of the shortest trees found by the phylogenetic analysis after pruning of Lewisuchus and Teleocrater. Numbers at nodes indicate decay index. Inferred manual phalangeal formula for selected nodes indicated below clade names. Hands of representative members of the avian stem (bold names) in extensor view (Herrerasaurus in flexor view), medial side at left, missing elements in white based on ancestral states inferred at least inclusive node containing the taxon. Red star indicates loss of metacarpal V, blue stars indicate multiple independent losses of metacarpal IV among tetanurans. Drawings by A. Cau.

Original figure caption: Trackway S1 (Eosauropus sp.), here attributed to a sauropod trackmaker based on pedal synapomorphies; trackmaker is moving towards the south-west. Two consequtive pes impressions of a tridactyl Grallator [i.e. a theropod] trackway can be seen left to the S1 trackway. Note: The tracks are preserved on a bedding plane of a thin siltstone bed of the Late Triassic Fleming Fjord Formation of East Greenland. A) shows a photograph of the trackway(s) as preserved on the bedding plane (i.e. as concave epireliefs); B) shows a color shaded relief map based on a high-resolution photogrammetric 3D-model of the bedding plane; C) is an interpretative outline drawing of the S1 trackway; abbreviations: LM = left manus (i.e. forefoot), LP = left pes (i.e. hindfoot), RM = right manus, RP = right pes, numbers increase in walking direction.
