Iinyani ezimnandi
Parahesperornis could not fly. Its wings were tiny and useless for flying, but its legs were strong for swimming.12
It had sharp teeth in its beak, which is unusual for modern birds. These teeth helped it grab slippery fish.12
Parahesperornis is known from two nearly complete skeletons, which is rare for ancient birds. Most are found as just a few bones.2
It lived in the Western Interior Seaway, a shallow sea that covered central North America during the Cretaceous.1
The first fossil of Parahesperornis was found in 1894, but it was not named until 1984 by scientist L. D. Martin.24
Parahesperornis was about the size of a modern loon or a small penguin, around 60 to 90 centimeters long.2

?Was Parahesperornis a dinosaur?
Yes, it was a type of prehistoric bird. While birds are descendants of dinosaurs, scientists classify Parahesperornis as an avialan bird rather than a dinosaur.1
?How big was Parahesperornis?
It was about 60 to 90 centimetres (2 to 3 feet) long, roughly the size of a modern loon or a small penguin.1

?Could Parahesperornis swim?
Yes, it was a foot-propelled diving bird that swam like a penguin, using its strong legs to chase fish underwater.3
