Igama lithetha: “long snout bird”1

Yayitya: InyamaIintaka zokuqalaiCretaceous yokuqala

Longirostravis was a tiny bird that lived about 125 million years ago. It had a long, thin beak and used it to poke into mud for food, just like some shorebirds do today.1

izinto ezimnandi

Iinyani ezimnandi

Longirostravis had a beak about 35 millimetres long, which is longer than its skull.1

Its teeth were tiny, only about 0.5 millimetres, and were only at the very tip of its beak.1

It was about the size of a quail.1

Longirostravis is the first early bird found with a probing feeding style, like modern oystercatchers and redshanks.1

Its fossil includes lots of feathers, showing it was covered in plumage.1

The breastbone had a strange three-branched expansion, like moose antlers.1

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

Kwiingcali zeedayinaso

Igama lenzululwazi: Longirostravis
Inikwe igama ngu:: Hou et al. 20043
Iqela: Iintaka zokuqala
Usapho / iclade: Longipterygidae3
Ukuhlelwa: Theropoda > Avialae3
Ubudala bamatye: 126 ukuya ku-120 izigidi zeminyaka (Barremian / Aptian)3

Ukufunyanwa: Longirostravis was named by Hou and colleagues in 2004. The fossil was found by a man named Han, and the species name 'hani' honours him.1
Kusaxoxwa ngayo: Scientists are still debating exactly which group of enantiornithine birds Longirostravis belongs to, with some placing it in Longipterygidae and others in Longirostravisidae.2
