Parvicursorinae

(Karhu and Rautian 1996)

Alvarezsauridae constitue une famille fossile, assez étrange de petits dinosaures théropodes à longues pattes capables de se déplacer en courant. On pensait au départ qu'ils étaient les premiers oiseaux incapables de voler[réf. nécessaire], mais la plupart des spécialistes les voient aujourd'hui plutôt comme des membres primitifs des Maniraptora[réf. nécessaire]. D'autres travaux suggèrent qu'ils sont un groupe frère des Ornithomimosauria[réf. nécessaire].
