The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Early dinosaurs: A phylogenetic study (2006, background): “Indeed, as seen in various members of this group (Andrews 1921; Padian 1986; Rowe 1989; Raath 1990; Madsen & Welles 2000; Rauhut & Hungerbühler 2000), the lateroproximal surface of the femur has a protruding sigmoid scar for the insertion of the M. iliofemorale.”
A PROPOSAL FOR A STANDARD TERMINOLOGY OF ANATOMICAL NOTATION AND ORIENTATION IN FOSSIL VERTEBRATE DENTITIONS (2003, background): “We offer the terms basal for the direction toward crown bases, apical for the direction toward crown tips, occlusal for views of the occlusal surfaces, and basal and root apical for views of crown bases and roots, respectively.”
The Early Evolution of Archosaurs: Relationships and the Origin of Major Clades (2011, background): “However, as noted by Hungerbühler (2000), the subjective term ‘‘heterodonty’’ to describe a set of teeth is highly ambiguous.”
