    Large euenantiornithine birds from the Cretaceous of southern France, North America and Argentina

    We review historical approaches to the systematics of Enantiornithes, the dominant birds of the second half of the Mesozoic, and describe the forelimb remains of a new Cretaceous euenantiornithine. This taxon is known on the basis of fossil specimens collected from southern France, Argentina and the United States; such a wide geographical distribution is uncharacteristic for Enantiornithes as most taxa are known from single localities. Fossils from the Massecaps locality close to the village of Cruzy (Hérault, southern France), in combination with elements from New Mexico (USA) and from the Argentine locality of El Brete (Salta Province) testify to the global distribution of large flighted euenantiornithine birds in the Late Cretaceous. We discuss the systematics and taxonomy of additional isolated bones of Enantiornithes that were collected from the Argentine El Brete locality in the 1970s; the presence of these flying birds in Cretaceous rocks on both sides of the equator, in both northern and southern hemispheres, further demonstrates the ubiquity of this avian lineage by the latter stages of the Mesozoi

    Figure 3. Photos and line drawings of portions of the skull of Massaliasuchus affuvelensis including (MHNM. 10834.0) in dorsal (A, B), ventral (C, D) views, the region of the orbits (MHNM. 482.1) in dorsal view (E, F), and the tip of the rostrum (MHNM. 10833.1) in dorsal (G, H) and ventral (I, J) views. Small diagrams locate the concerned skull regions.

    FIG. 1. – Egg of Aepyornis maximus Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, 1851, from Rowley (1878). The original plate shows the egg (from Rowley's collection) at its actual size. This appears to be the first illustration of an Aepyornis egg in a scientific paper. Photo E.
