Elzanowski (1981) described seven specimens of G. minuta, found preserved still within their eggs. He documented evidence that the animals would have hatched with a superprecocial developmental pattern. [2] The genus also includes the fossil formerly known as Nanantius valifanovi, described from a fragmentary skull with some postcranial bones from Khermeen Tsav (PIN-4492). The synonymy was revealed through analysis of the first good specimen (IGM-100/1011), a supremely preserved partial skull from the Djadochta Formation at Ukhaa Tolgod.[3]

abstract
  • Elzanowski (1981) described seven specimens of G. minuta, found preserved still within their eggs. He documented evidence that the animals would have hatched with a superprecocial developmental pattern. [2] The genus also includes the fossil formerly known as Nanantius valifanovi, described from a fragmentary skull with some postcranial bones from Khermeen Tsav (PIN-4492). The synonymy was revealed through analysis of the first good specimen (IGM-100/1011), a supremely preserved partial skull from the Djadochta Formation at Ukhaa Tolgod.[3] Gobipteryx was originally considered distinct enough to be classified in a distinct order (Gobipterygiformes) and family (Gobipterygidae). Research indicates it is a member of the Enantiornithes, a group of primitive birds which includes Neuquenornis and Sinornis.
