Parabohaiornis
''Parabohaiornis'' is an extinct genus of bohaiornithid enantiornithine dinosaur known from the Early Cretaceous of Liaoning Province, northeastern China. It contains a single species, ''Parabohaiornis martini''.
==Discovery==
''Parabohaiornis'' was first described and named by Min Wang, Zhong-He Zhou, Jingmai K. O'Connor and Nikita V. Zelenkov in 2014 and the type species is ''Parabohaiornis martini''. The generic name combines the Latin prefix ''para'', meaning "close to", with the generic name of ''Bohaiornis'', the type genus of the Bohaiornithidae family, in reference to the morphological similarity between ''Parabohaiornis'' and other bohaiornithids. The specific name, ''martini'', honors the late paleontologist Prof. Larry D. Martin, for his contributions to the study of the evolution of birds.〔
''Parabohaiornis'' is known from the holotype IVPP V 18691, a nearly complete and partially articulated skeleton and skull, and from the referred specimen IVPP V 18690, an articulated partial skeleton missing only the skull, ulna, radius and hands. Both specimens are preserved in single slabs and are currently housed at the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology, Beijing. The specimens were collected at deposits near the Lamadong Town, Jianchang County of the Liaoning Province, from the Jiufotang Formation, dating to the Aptian stage of the Early Cretaceous, approximately 120.3 million years ago.〔
