<dinofyi-dinosaur slug="anomalopteryx"></dinofyi-dinosaur>†Anomalopteryx was a small moa (order Dinornithiformes) endemic to New Zealand, representing the smallest moa genus at roughly 60cm tall. A flightless herbivore that browsed forest understorey vegetation, it became extinct following Polynesian settlement approximately 600 years ago. Its remains are known from both North and South Island subfossil deposits.
