1

Zhouornis lived about 121 to 113 million years ago during the Early Cretaceous.2

2

Its skull had a large basipterygoid process and a well-developed basisphenoid recess, features also found in non-avian dinosaurs.1

3

The only known fossil is a nearly complete skeleton with some feathers preserved.2

4

Zhouornis was not fully grown when it died, but it was already one of the largest enantiornithine birds known.1

5

It belongs to a group called Enantiornithes, which were the most common birds during the Cretaceous.2

6

The fossil was found in the Jiufotang Formation, a famous rock layer that has produced many other early birds.2

Zhouornis was named in 2013 by Zihui Zhang and colleagues based on a single fossil skeleton from Chaoyang County, Liaoning, China.1
Wɔda so gye ho akyinnye
Scientists are not sure exactly how large Zhouornis could grow as an adult, because the only known fossil is from a young individual.1
