In Joyce et al. 2004, _Testudinata_ is defined as an apomorphy-based = clade: _Testudinata_ [Klein 1760] Joyce et al. 2004 =3D apomorphyClade(Characters, Specifiers) | Specifiers =3D {Testudo mydas Linnaeus 1758, Testudo fimbriatus Lin= naeus 1783, Pelomedusa subrufa (Bonnaterre 1789), Podocnemis expansa (Schweigger = 1812), Batagur baska (Gray 1831), Carettochelys insculpta Ramsay 1887, Chely= dra serpentina (Linnaeus 1758), Dermatemys mawii Gray 1847, Dermochelys c= oriacea (Vandellius 1761), Emys orbicularis (Linnaeus 1758), Kinosternon scor= pioides (Linnaeus 1766), Staurotypus triporcatus (Wiegmann 1828)}, Characters =3D {"carapace formed from costal bones with fused ribs, n= eural bones with fused thoracic vertebrae, and marginal bones; plastron formed fr= om interclavicle, clavicle, and three to five paired bones sutured toget= her; carapace and plastron articulated at lateral margin and enclosing sho= ulder girdle and pelvic girdle (Gaffney and Meylan 1988, p. 161)"} In the same paper, _Pantestudines_ is proposed as the panstem. _Anaps= ida_ and _Parareptilia_ are listed as synonyms. > Ornithurae*** Neornithes birds > *** Three different definitions, none of which includes *Archaeopte= ryx*, but > all of which describe clades significantly larger than the crown. But certainly not the name of the panstem. The panstem has been calle= d Ornithosuchia (invalid by PhyloCode rules, since it does not include _Ornithosuchua_) and (I think) _Ornithotarsi_. Both the panstem and t= he crown have been called _Aves_, but using it for the crown is much more comm= on. > Craniata**** Vertebrata**** > **** No fossils involved here, just the phylogeny of the living: > http://tolweb.org/tree?group=3DCraniata&contgroup=3DChordata.
