Image description

Archaeopteryx lithographica, a rare transitional fossil, sometimes called 'dinobird' as it displays both dinosaur and bird-like characteristics. This London specimen, found in the Upper Jurassic of Solenhofen in Germany, is the earliest known bird and demonstrates the evolutionary lineage from feathered dinosaurs to birds.
