Cited by genera

• Haplocheirus

  Argued on cranial evidence Haplocheirus resembles ornithomimosaurs, possibly falling outside Alvarezsauroidea

• Shishugounykus

  Argued Jurassic Chinese alvarezsauroids may instead show ornithomimosaur or compsognathid affinities

Cited by clades

• Alvarezsauroidea

  Questioned the alvarezsauroid affinities of Haplocheirus and other Jurassic Chinese forms on cranial grounds, arguing ornithomimosaur resemblances; ran no cladistic analysis.
