genus protoavis
Genus Protoavis is a controversial genus of bird-like creatures, that if correctly identified and dated, would predate the first known bird, Archaeopteryx, by about 60 to 75 million years. Fossils of Protoavis, specifically "Protoavis texensis", were first discovered in Texas, USA in the late 1980s. It has characteristics of both reptiles and birds, making it a potential transitional fossil between dinosaurs and birds. However, its classification is highly debated among paleontologists, and many question its relevance to the origin of birds.
