New Remains of <i>Scandiavis mikkelseni</i> Inform Avian Phylogenetic Relationships and Brain Evolution
Although an increasing number of studies are combining skeletal and neural morphology data in a phylogenetic context, most studies do not include extinct taxa due to the rarity of preserved endocasts. The early Eocene avifauna of the Fur Formation of Denmark presents an excellent opportunity for fur...
