New Finding on Origin of Avian Predentary in Mesozoic Birds

New Finding on Origin of Avian Predentary in Mesozoic Birds

论文摘要

<正>The predentary bone is one of the most enigmatic skeletal elements in avian evolution. Located at the tip of the lower jaw, this bone is absent in more primitive birds and in living birds; it is thought to have been lost during evolution. For over 30 years the origin and function of the avian predentary has remained mysterious. Now, however, Alida Bailleul, LI Zhiheng, Jingmai O’Connor and ZHOU Zhonghe from the Institute of
