Archaeopteryx had a mixture of bird-like and reptilian features. It had feathers like modern birds, but also had a long bony tail, teeth, and a body shape more similar to that of a small dinosaur. Its wings were similar in structure to those of modern birds, with feathers arranged in a similar manner, but its flight capabilities were likely more limited than those of modern birds.
The first Archaeopteryx fossil was discovered in 1861 in Germany, and since then, several other specimens have been found. There are currently 12 recognized specimens of Archaeopteryx, all from the Solnhofen limestone in Bavaria, Germany.
The Papo Archaeopteryx #55034 is part of the Dinosaur Series by Papo.
