Cosesaurus
''Cosesaurus'' is a genus of protorosaur archosauromorph reptile. It is known from a single, hand-sized fossil from the middle Triassic period of Spain. In 1977, Ellenberger proposed that ''Cosesaurus'' was an ancestor of modern birds. That publication followed the description of the bird-like theropod, ''Deinonychus'', but it appeared long before the theropod ancestry of birds had been widely accepted. In his large and highly detailed treatise, Ellenberger interpreted the following traits in the fossil: a strap-like scapula, a furcula (wishbone), a keeled sternum, beak-like jaws, a retroverted pubis and tail feathers. Some of these interpretations have not been supported by subsequent research. Padian and Chiappe (1998) regarded ''Cosesaurus'' as a member of the archosauromorph clade Prolacertiformes. ==References==
