<dinofyi-dinosaur slug="brachyramphus-marmoratus"></dinofyi-dinosaur>Brachyramphus marmoratus, the marbled murrelet, is an extant alcid with fossil records from North America. This small carnivorous seabird is distinctive for nesting on large moss-covered branches in old-growth forests far from the sea, rather than in cliff colonies. Its unusual nesting behavior and dependence on old-growth timber make it a species of conservation concern.
