Dalianraptor

Dalianraptor (meaning "thief of Dalian") is a genus of prehistoric bird that lived in China about 125 million years ago, during the Early Cretaceous. It is very similar to the other early avialian Shenzhouraptor (or Jeholornis), though it has a longer digit I (thumb-equivalent) and shorter forelimbs which suggests it may have been flightless. It may even have been a primitive maniraptoran dinosaur. Reaching about 80 cm in length, it was found in Jiufotang Formation rocks in Liaoning Province.
