| 摘要 | Two new enantiornithine birds, Parabohaiornis martini gen. et sp. nov., and Longusunguis kurochkini gen. et sp. nov., are reported here based on three nearly complete skeletons from the Lower Cretaceous lacustrine deposits of the Jiufotang Formation in Liaoning, northeastern China. The two new species share several unique features with Bohaiornis, Shenqiornis, Sulcavis and Zhouornis, including a robust rostrum with robust, subconical teeth, furcula with blunt omal expansions, sternal trabeculae caudolaterally directed, short and stout tarsometatarsus with hypertrophied ungual on digit Ⅲ. A close relationship among the two new species and four previously described taxa is confi rmed by a comprehensive phylogenetic analysis, leading us to erect Bohaiornithidae fam. nov. With six known taxa, Bohaiornithidae is the most diverse recognized enantiornithine family. The robust morphology of the rostrum and foot suggests bohaiornithids occupied a specialized ecological niche compared to other Early Cretaceous enantiornithines. |
