The genus contains a single described species, ''Phasmagyps patritus'' which is possibly the oldest New World vulture known, though its placement in the Cathartidae family has been questioned. ==History and classification== ''Phasmagyps'' is known from a single fragmentary fossil bone, the holotype housed in the paleontology collections of the Colorado Museum of Natural History in Boulder, Colorado and given the number 1078.〔 In 1923 Philip Reinheinter collected the specimen from the Weld County ''Trigonias'' quarry, possibly a fossilized watering hole. The quarry worked sedimentary rocks that are positioned approximately above the contact between the Pierre Shale and the Chadron Formation, thus dating the fossils to the Lower Chadronian. The fossil was first studied by the American paleontologist and ornithologist Alexander Wetmore; his 1927 type description of the new genus and species was published in the journal ''Proceedings of the Colorado Museum of Natural History''. In the description, Wetmore did not give any etymological explanations for the genus and species names, though ''phasma'' is Latin and Greek for a phantom or apparition and ''Gyps'' identifies the genus as a vulture. The fossil was reexamined in the early 1980s by avian paleontologist Storrs L. Olson. In a 1985 paper he gives a brief comment on the genus. He stated without going into specific details, that while the fossil is superficially similar to those of Cathartidae members, however it possesses notable features which are different and as such he regarded the position of the genus as problematic.〔 In their 2005 description of a Peruvian fossil, Marcelo Stucchi and Steven Emslie noted the disputed nature of ''Phasmagyps'', but maintained the placement in Cathartidae and noted the genus as the oldest member of the family in the Americas.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Phasmagyps」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
