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.
