Group Baraminic Status Discontinuity Evidence Continuity Evidence Other Analyses Notes Dinosauria Apobaramin Nesbitt et al. (2009) No clustering with non- dinosaurs (PCA: PC 1/PC 2). Evidence of discontinuity among members in other analyses. - Saurischia Apobaramin? Langer (2004) Negative correlation with other taxa (BDC). No clustering with other taxa (MDS/PCA). Not all members share continuity. - Very weakly supported: few taxa included. Herrerasauridae Holobaramin? Langer (2004) Negative correlation with other taxa (BDC). No clustering with other taxa (MDS/PCA). Langer (2004) Members are positively correlated (BDC). Members cluster together (MDS). Weakly supported: 1) few taxa, 2) no non-dinosaur taxa represented. Theropoda Apobaramin Nesbitt et al. (2009) No clustering with other taxa (PCA: PC 1/PC 2). Other analyses demonstrate discontinuity among members. - Coelophysoidea Monobaramin - Carrano et al. (2012) Members cluster together (PCA). Coelophysoidea is here defined as Coelophysidae + Dilophosaurus. Ceratosauridae Monobaramin - Brissón Egli et al. (2016) Members cluster together (PCA). Ceratosauridae is here defined as including Ceratosaurus , Eoabelisaurus , and Genyodectes . Abelisauroidea Apobaramin Tykoski and Rowe (2004) Negative correlation or no correlation with non- abelisauroids (BDC). No clustering with non- abelisauroids (MDS/PCA). Other studies demonstrate discontinuity within Abelisauroidea. - Weakly supported: few taxa included. Noasauridae Holobaramin? Brissón Egli et al. (2016) Distant from all other taxa in PC 3/PC 1 (PCA). Brissón Egli et al. (2016) Positive correlation unites members (BDC). Members cluster together (PCA). Weakly supported: most analyses did not show discontinuity. Abelisauridae Holobaramin Brissón Egli et al. (2016) Negative correlation with non- abelisaurids (BDC). Clear separation from non- abelisaurid taxa (PCA). Brissón Egli et al. (2016) Positive correlation unites members (BDC). Abelisaurids ordinate along a single trajectory (PCA). "Basal" Tetanurae Inconclusive - Caranno et al. (2012) Members make a series along PC 2/PC 1 (PCA). At first these taxa appear to be in a stratomorphic series, but Monolophosaurus should be lower than it is. Additionally, there are "basal" coelurosaurs ( Compsognathus and Ornitholestes ) mixed in with this non-coelurosaur group. Spinosauridae Monobaramin - Carrano et al. (2012) Members cluster together (PCA). Very weakly supported: 1) few taxa included, 2) cluster near a non- spinosaur in PC 3/PC 1 (PCA) 451 Table 2.
