Аннотация
Buttonquails (family Turnicidae of the order Charadriiformes) are a morphologically specialized group of small, predominantly tropical birds of open landscapes, extremely poorly represented in the fossil record. The article describes a fragmentary humerus of a buttonquail from the Lower Pleistocene of the Taurida Cave in central Crimea. This is the first find of the family Turnicidae in Eurasia in the chronological interval from the Pliocene through the Middle Pleistocene. This find highlights the limited available information on the taxonomic composition of Early Quaternary Eurasian avifaunas, even at the family level, and also sheds light on the Late Cenozoic evolutionary history of Turnicidae.
