Dalingheornis was a tiny bird that lived during the early Cretaceous period, about 122 million years ago. It had special feet that helped it climb trees, making it one of the first birds to live in the trees. Its long tail had 20 bones, just like some meat-eating dinosaurs!1 2

izinto ezimnandi

Iinyani ezimnandi

Dalingheornis is the first Mesozoic bird known to have heterodactyl feet, which means its toes were arranged for climbing, like a modern woodpecker.1 2

Its tail was unusually long for a bird, with 20 vertebrae, and it had chevron bones like those of dromaeosaurid dinosaurs.1 2

The only known fossil is a juvenile, so scientists think the long tail might have been a baby feature that changed as it grew up.1

Dalingheornis was named after Yang Liwei, the first Chinese astronaut in space.1

It lived in the early Cretaceous period, about 122 million years ago, in what is now Liaoning Province, China.1

Umfanekiso owenziwe yi-AI: Dalingheornis — Umfanekiso owenziwe yi-AI obonisa indlela Dalingheornis esenokuba wayekhangeleka ngayo, wenziwe yikhompyutha ngokwento eyaziwa zizazinzulu. Kukuqikelela nje: esona silwanyana sinokuba sasikhangeleka ngenye indlela, kwaye akukho mntu waziyo imibala yaso yokwenyani.

Inyaniso ngeentsomi

Intsomi: Some people think Dalingheornis had a reversed second toe claw for climbing.

Inyaniso: Scientists are not sure if the claw was really reversed or just moved after the animal died.1

Igama lenzululwazi: Dalingheornis
Inikwe igama ngu:: Zhang et al. 20063
Iqela: Iintaka zokuqala
Usapho / iclade: Euenantiornithes3
Ukuhlelwa: Theropoda > Avialae3
Ubudala bamatye: 126 ukuya ku-120 izigidi zeminyaka (Barremian / Aptian)3
Izakhiwo zamatye: Yixian3
Amazwe: iTshayina3
Iirekhodi zeefosili: 1 kwi-Paleobiology Database3
Ukufunyanwa: Dalingheornis was named in 2006 by Zhang Zihui and colleagues from a single fossil found in the Yixian Formation in China. The fossil is stored in a private collection.1 3
Kusaxoxwa ngayo: Some scientists think Dalingheornis might not be a valid name because the only fossil is in a private collection and cannot be studied by everyone.1
