Dinosauromorpha is a clade of avemetatarsalians (archosaurs closer to birds than to crocodilians) that includes the Dinosauria (dinosaurs) and some of their close relatives. It was originally defined to include dinosauriforms and lagerpetids,[3] with later formulations specifically excluding pterosaurs from the group.[4] Birds are the only dinosauromorphs which survive to the present day.
