Ebyewuunyisa

Flexomornis lived about 96 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous period.2

Its fossils were found in the Woodbine Formation of Texas, near a dam spillway.2

Flexomornis is an enantiornithine bird, a group that had teeth and clawed wings.2

The name Flexomornis means 'flexed shoulder bird' because its shoulder blade is bent.1

Only one species is known, Flexomornis howei, named after fossil hunter Kris Howe.1

These fossils are the oldest known enantiornithine bird remains from North America.2

Flexomornis lived near the coast, and its fossils were found with sharks, turtles, and dinosaurs.2

Ekifaananyi kya Flexomornis ekyakolebwa AI, nga kiraga engeri gye yayinza okuba ng'afaanana, ekyakolebwa kompyuta okusinziira ku ebyo bannassaayansi bye bamanyi. Kuteebereza: ekisolo ekyennyini kiyinza okuba nga kyali kifaanana bulala, era tewali amanyi langi zaakyo ez'amazima.
