The early evolution and diversification of the dinosaurs                remains largely unresolved, due to the scarcity of complete                     skeletons of certain transitional forms of Triassic age.  Dr.                   Paul Sereno proposes to begin field collections in Triassic-aged                strata in Argentina, in collaboration with in-country                           specialists.  Preliminary finds suggest that new collections will               provide critical observations of dinosaur anatomy that will                     settle long-standing controversies over ancestor-descendant                     relationships.                                                                          Dinosaurs are but one of the major reptile groups that                  diversified in the early Mesozoic.  The proposed research has the               potential to advance our understanding of dinosaur evolution.  It               also has implications for the study of crocodiles, flying                       reptiles and birds, all of which are descendants of that period                 of differentiation.  International scientific cooperation will                  also be improved.
