An elliptical adverb clause is one that omits words that may be understood. For example, in the sentence "he is more knowledgeable than I" the pronoun I is used because the full clause would be "than I am knowledgeable." The same applies for an omitted subject: "He was more startled than scared" omits the words "he was" before scared.
