Longipteryx
Longipteryx was a tiny bird that lived about 120 million years ago in what is now China. It had long, strong wings and a very long snout with hooked teeth at the tip. This little bird was a great flyer and could perch on branches like modern birds.12

Datu dibertigarriak
Longipteryx had a very long snout that was longer than the rest of its head, with a few hooked teeth at the tip.1
Its wings were much longer than its legs, with the upper arm bone (humerus) being 1.56 times the length of the thigh bone (femur).1
Unlike most other early birds, Longipteryx had uncinate processes on its ribs, which helped strengthen its ribcage and improve breathing.12
Its feet were built for perching, with all four toe bones (metatarsals) ending at nearly the same level, just like modern perching birds.2
Scientists once thought Longipteryx ate fish or insects, but in 2024 a study found it actually ate seeds and fruits.1
Longipteryx had a big breastbone with a well-developed keel, which gave it powerful flight muscles.2
