<dinofyi-dinosaur slug="cerorhinca-reai"></dinofyi-dinosaur>Cerorhinca reai is an extinct auk (Alcidae) from Neogene marine deposits of the western United States, named in honour of a contributor to avian palaeontology. A wing-propelled diving bird, it shared the productive coastal ecosystems of the proto-Pacific with early pinnipeds and large bony fish. Skeletal proportions indicate a body plan intermediate between modern rhinoceros auklets and murres.
