Proximal hypotrophy (left upper limb)
Pelagornithidae
The Pelagornithidae, commonly called pelagornithids, pseudodontorns, bony-toothed birds, false-toothed birds or pseudotooth birds, are a prehistoric family of large seabirds. Their fossil remains have been found all over the world in rocks dating between the Late Paleocene and the Pliocene-Pleistocene boundary. Most of the common names refer to these birds' most notable trait: tooth-like points on their beak's edges, which unlike true teeth contained Volkmann's canals and were outgrowths of the premaxillary and mandibular bones. Even small species of pseudotooth birds were the size of albatrosses; the largest ones were truly gigantic, and with wingspans estimated at 5–6 meters (15–20 ft) among the largest flying birds ever to live...
