<dinofyi-dinosaur slug="bathornis-minor"></dinofyi-dinosaur>Bathornis minor is an extinct small cariamiform bird from Eocene–Oligocene deposits of the United States. As the smallest known species of Bathornis, this carnivorous ground bird hunted insects and small vertebrates in open habitats. Multiple Bathornis species co-existed in North American Paleogene ecosystems, possibly occupying different prey-size niches.
