Go fish! Ancient birds evolved
specialist diving adaptations

Summary:
A new study of some primitive birds from the Cretaceous shows how several
separate lineages evolved adaptations for diving. Living at the same time as
the dinosaurs, Hesperornithiform bird fossils have been found in North America,
Europe and Asia in rocks 65-95 million years old. This research shows that
separate lineages became progressively more adept at diving into water to catch
fishes, like modern day loons and grebes.

A new study of some primitive birds from the Cretaceous shows how several
separate lineages evolved adaptations for diving.
Living at the same time as the dinosaurs, Hesperornithiform bird fossils
have been found in North America, Europe and Asia in rocks 65-95 million years
old. Dr Alyssa Bell and Professor Luis Chiappe of the Dinosaur Institute,
Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, publishing in the Journal
of Systematic Palaeontology, have undertaken a detailed analysis of their
evolution, showing that separate lineages became progressively more adept at
diving into water to catch fishes, like modern day loons and grebes.
The Hesperornithiformes are a highly derived but very understudied group of
primitive birds from the Cretaceous period. This study is the first
comprehensive phylogenetic analysis, or evaluation of evolutionary
relationships, to ever be undertaken on the entire group.
The results of this study confirm that the Hesperornithiformes do form a
single group (or clade), but that within this group the inter-relationships of
the different taxa are more complex than previously thought. Additionally, this
study finds that anatomical changes were accompanied by enlargement in overall
body size, which increased lung capacity and allowed deeper diving.
Overall, this study provides evidence for understanding the evolution of
diving adaptations among the earliest known aquatic birds.
