Baez et al. (2009) modified Fabrezi's character list - deleting some autapomorphies, rewording or splitting some characters, removing many soft part characters, and adding a few new ones. 1.

Cervical cotyle arrangement: 0 - fully confluent (Lynch type 3); 1 - narrowly separated but distinct (Lynch's type 2; 2 - widely separated (Lynch's type 1) 36.

Uncinate processes on transverse process of Vert 3: 0-present; 1-absent 42. Expansion of sacral diapophyses: 0 - widely expanded (length of distal end of sacral rib equal or greater than total width of sacrum); 1 - moderately dilated (anterior and posterior margins of sacral rib clearly divergent, distal end of rib flared by comparison with proximal end, but less than total sacral width); 2 - cylindrical (anterior and posterior margins of sacral rib more or less parallel, distal end narrow and similar in diameter to proximal end) (This is modified from Baez et al. 2009 who had: 0 - widely expanded (ratio of length of distal end to mediolateral width great than 1.5); 1 - moderately expanded (ratio of distal end to mediolateral width greater than 0.75 but less than 1.5); 2 - unexpanded or narrow (ratio of distal end to mediolateral width less than 0.75). However, this does not work well. The character description does not say, but presumably means, the total width across the sacrum. However - measuring three of the taxa coded 0 (i.e. length/width greater than 1.5), they all fall in the 1 category (1.1-1.3, 1.2, 1.1). 43.
