Tracing the origin and early radiation of birds——Paleornithologist ZHOU Zhonghe |
|
| Abstract: | With great care, Dr. ZHOU Zhonghe takes out a package wrapped by cotton tissue from a drawer and says: "This is the gem of our collections: the fossil of a bird that lived 125 million years ago!" Then, pointing at a tiny mound, he explains: "Look, this is the claw and that is the head. It was in the egg shell and ready to hatch ... The species fell into a family of waterside inhabitants." |
| Keywords: | radiation early origin species family shell ready hatch claw head Look tiny fossil bird package cotton tissue care |
