Biology:Telmabates
From HandWiki
Telmabates is an extinct genus of presbyornithid[1] bird from the Eocene Bird Clay Locality of the Sarmiento Formation of Chubut Province, Argentina. The genus contains a single species, T. antiquus.[2]
Telmabates antiquus was named and described by Howard (1955).[2] A second species, T. howardae was named by Cracraft (1970),[3] but De Mendoza, Degrange & Tambussi (2024) moved T. howardae to the new species Wunketru howardae as they found the species to be separate from Telmabates.[4]
