Antique engraved illustration of the Archaeopteryx. Vintage illustration of the Archaeopteryx. Old engraved picture of the extinct bird. Archaeopteryx, sometimes referred to by its German name, Urvogel lit. `Primeval Bird`, is a genus of bird-like dinosaurs. The name derives from the ancient Greek archa os, meaning ancient , and pt ryx, meaning feather or wing . Between the late 19th century and the early 21st century, Archaeopteryx was generally accepted by palaeontologists and popular reference books as the oldest known bird member of the group Avialae. Older potential avialans have since been identified, including Anchiornis, Xiaotingia, and Aurornis. Archaeopteryx lived in the Late Jurassic around 150 million years ago, in what is now southern Germany, during a time when Europe was an archipelago of islands in a shallow warm tropical sea, much closer to the equator than it is now. Similar in size to a Eurasian magpie, with the largest individuals possibly attaining the size of a raven, the largest species of Archaeopteryx could grow to about 0.5 m 1 ft 8 in in length. Despite their small size, broad wings, and inferred ability to fly or glide, Archaeopteryx had more in common with other small Mesozoic dinosaurs than with modern birds.
