Gallinuloides

Gallinuloides is a prehistoric genus of pangalliform bird.

It lived about 48 million years ago in North America.

The type specimen was found in a Green River Formation deposit in Wyoming.

[1] The former Gallinuloides prentici was eventually placed (after a brief stint in Grus) in a distinct genus Paragrus; it is no pangalliform but belongs to the Geranoididae (Lambrecht 1933:520).
