“原始热河鸟”为鸟类起源于恐龙的假说提供了新的证据“原始热河鸟”是以吃种子为生的鸟类,是何种子尚需研究日前出版的英国的《自然》杂志发表了中国科学院古脊推动物与古人类研究所古鸟类学者周忠和与张福成的一篇论文。他们在我国辽宁朝阳发现一种新的原始鸟类化石,并把它命名为“原始热河鸟”。这件化石,据称是我国境内迄今所发现的最原始的一种鸟类。其原始性仅次于德国发现的、世界上最原始、同时也是最古老的鸟类——始祖鸟。这一化石和著名的孔子鸟相比,特征明显更加原始,代表了鸟类早期演化的一个更加古老的祖先类型。 “The original river bird ” provides new evidence for the hypothesis that birds originated in dinosaurs “The original river bird ” is to eat seeds for birds, what is the seed still need to study a few days ago published British Nature published an essay by Zhou Zhonghe and Zhang Fucheng, ancient paleontologists at the Institute of Vertebrate Plutons and Paleoanthropology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. They found a new primitive bird fossil in Chaoyang, Liaoning, China, and named it “the original Reeve bird.” This fossil is said to be the most primitive bird found to date in our country. Its originality is second only to that found in Germany, the world’s most primitive, but also the oldest birds - Archeopteryx. This fossil is significantly more primitive than the famous Confucius bird and represents a much older ancestral type of bird’s early evolution.
