<dinofyi-dinosaur slug="buteogallus-milleri"></dinofyi-dinosaur>† Buteogallus milleri is an extinct black-hawk species from the Pleistocene of the United States, named in honor of Loye Holmes Miller, a notable American avian palaeontologist. Related to modern black-hawks that inhabit riparian zones, this carnivorous raptor likely hunted fish and aquatic prey in wetland environments. Its fossils from North America expand knowledge of the Buteogallus lineage and its historical distribution prior to the end-Pleistocene extinctions.
