EspañolPROTOBIRD
The informal term 'protobird' may be useful in discussing basal members of the clade Avialae. All protobirds are extinct.
Protobirds would include animals like Confuciusornis, Sapeornis,and the Enantiornithes. These animals were small, flying, feathered, and closely related to birds. The term "bird", however, is often used more strictly to refer only to Aves.
