Dromaeosauridae

A turkey-sized, fully feathered dromaeosaurid from Mongolia's Late Cretaceous deserts. Its real anatomy includes wing feathers, a long stiffened tail and an enlarged second-toe claw—but not the human-sized, scaly body made famous by films.

A feathered Early Cretaceous dromaeosaurid with a raised second-toe claw, grasping hands and a reinforced tail. John Ostrom's study of it helped transform the modern view of dinosaurs as active, bird-like animals.

The largest well-supported dromaeosaur, a powerfully built Early Cretaceous predator from eastern Utah known from scattered type material, larger BYU individuals and a remarkable multi-age sandstone block still being prepared.

A tiny, nearly complete feathered pennaraptoran from Early Cretaceous China, preserving enormous wings, feathered feet and a fan of about 16 exceptionally long tail feathers.

A newly named microraptorine from northwestern China, represented by one articulated shoulder and forelimb from fossil beds otherwise famous for early birds.

A crow-sized dromaeosaur with long flight feathers on all four limbs, a feathered tail fan and direct fossil evidence for glossy iridescent plumage.
