Protoazin parisiensis
Taxonomy
Protoazin parisiensis was named by Mayr and De Pietri (2014) [Slightly larger than the extant O. hoazin, characterised by a mediolaterally wide coracoid shaft, which is here considered autapomorphic; further differs from Namibiavis in the presence of a pneumatic opening below the scapular cotyla of the coracoid and from Hoazinavis and Opisthocomus in the much shorter acromion of the scapula.]. It is not extant. Its type specimen is NMB PG.70, a set of postcrania (partial left coracoid, extremitas cranialis of left scapula, and distal portion of pedal phalanx). Its type locality is Romainville, marnes blanches supragypseuses, MP20, which is in a Priabonian terrestrial marl in France.
