This is an open forum area for all members for discussions on all issues of science and origins. This area will and does get volatile at times, but we ask that it be kept to a dull roar, and moderators will intervene to keep the peace if necessary. This means obvious trolling and flaming that becomes a problem will be dealt with, and you might find yourself in the doghouse.

A new early important transitional species between raptors and birds.
One point that this reference did not make clear, which is an important factor that makes this discovery very important is that the Ravenavis family this species is an older primitive missing link that is more closely related to Avialae the family that birds more directly descended from. Both Unenlagia and the Ravenavis families of Therapod dinosaurs and had feathered bied like dinosaurs. There are not many fossils of species from Ravenavis family. In fact I believe the only other species in this family is found in Madagascar.Last edited by shunyadragon; 06-08-2020, 10:35 AM.

The tinniest dinosaur sesxribed in post #1: Source: https://www.scientificamerican.com/a...ound-in-amber/ is not likely dinosaur nor bird, but a lizard. Later comparitive anatomy research made the determination.
