This project investigates the ecological diversification of early birds and their dinosaur relatives using advanced 3D imaging techniques. By analyzing limb morphology, it aims to understand habitat use and the evolution of flight, contributing to our knowledge of the dinosaur-bird transition.
Birds are the only extant dinosaurs and have achieved enormous diversity, spanning a wide range of ecologies including substantial variation in habitat use.
However, ecological diversification in the earliest birds and their closest dinosaurian relatives is poorly characterised.
This presents a fundamental knowledge gap regarding the dinosaur-bird transition – a major event in vertebrate evolution.
The unparalleled Mesozoic Jehol and Yanliao fossil assemblages from China include most known Mesoz…
