<dinofyi-dinosaur slug="cremaster-tytthus"></dinofyi-dinosaur>Cremaster tytthus is an extinct bird of uncertain affinities known from Quaternary deposits of the United States. Tentatively referred to a wading or shorebird lineage, it was likely a small herbivore or omnivore exploiting wetland environments. The species name tytthus ('small' in Greek) indicates its diminutive size. Its systematic placement awaits comprehensive phylogenetic revision of North American Quaternary avifaunal material.
Diet & Feeding
Cremaster tytthus was a plant-eating dinosaur. Herbivores typically fed on ferns, cycads, conifers, and other vegetation available during their era. Many herbivorous dinosaurs developed specialized teeth and digestive systems for processing tough plant material.
