There are no extant Aegypiinae and Gypaetinae in the Americas today though, although there are a comparatively large number of a North American gypaetine fossils.<\/p>\n<p> Complete specimens from Gypaetinae fossil species have rarely been reported from Eurasia and Africa, but now an exceptional skeleton of a new gypaetine vulture from the late Miocene has been found in deposits of the Linxia Basin in northwestern China. The specimen is the oldest record of Gypaetinae from Eurasia or Africa.<\/p>\n<p> This led the authors to re-examine the geographic and temporal distribution of Old World vultures, and they suggest a diverse radiation for Gypaetinae, coincident with early- to mid-Miocene grassland expansion. A shift in the known latitudinal distribution is also noted. Neogene records of Old World vultures are found primarily in mid- and high-latitude regions of North America and Eurasia as well as in the middle and low latitudes of Eurasia and Africa. With very few records in the middle to late Miocene, a latitudinal distribution similar to that of extant species is first seen in the early Pliocene.<\/p>\n<p> You can download the paper here <a href=\"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1642\/AUK-15-240.1\" target=\"_top\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1642\/AUK-15-240.1<\/a><\/p>\n<p> <b>Article Citation:<\/b><\/p>\n<p> Zhiheng Li, Julia A.
