Noun CEFR B2
/pəˈɹeɪviən/

Definitions

Any birdlike dinosaur of the clade Paraves, dinosaurs more closely related to birds than to oviraptorosaurs.

Examples

“We note that the difference forelimb:hindlimb ratio is within the range of intraspecific variation in two paravian taxa known from multiple specimens, Microraptor 17 and Archaeopteryx 19 20, and is therefore not likely to be a clearly distinguishing feature between Tianyuraptor and Zhanyuanlong .”
