主な相違点
- Microraptor had four wings (feathered hind limbs); Archaeopteryx had two main wings with clawed fingers.
- Both were small (Archaeopteryx ~0.5 m, Microraptor ~0.8 m) and likely capable of gliding or limited powered flight.
- Microraptor's iridescent plumage is reconstructed from fossil melanosomes; Archaeopteryx's feathers are preserved as imprints in limestone.
- Archaeopteryx (Late Jurassic, ~150 Ma) predates Microraptor (Early Cretaceous, ~125 Ma) by ~25 million years.
- Microraptor's stomach contents include fish and birds, showing it was an active predator; Archaeopteryx's diet is inferred from its teeth.
