Palaeoapterodytes ictus is an extinct species of penguin from the late Oligocene or early Miocene of Argentina , the only member of its genus .. Oligocene. Oligocene. Miocene. Miocene. Its fossil remains , consisting of only of a severely worn proximal part of a humerus , were found in the Patagonia Formation .. proximal.

Ameghino named his genus Apterodytes -LRB- meaning `` wingless diver '' , later emended to `` ancient wingless diver '' as the original name was preoccupied -RRB- because he mistakenly believed that this species lacked functional wings -LRB- the name is not to be confused with Aptenodytes , the modern emperor and king penguins -RRB- ..

In this he seemingly overlooked the effects of taphonomy , and I will simply relay the summation of Lambrecht -LRB- 1933 -RRB- , as translated from German by Simpson -LRB- 1972 -RRB-  :. taphonomy. taphonomy. `` Ameghino believed that the humerus of this form was atrophied in such a way that only the proximal half remained , the distal part of the bone being wholly lost ..

If this were the case , ... it would be one of the most interesting examples of extreme reversion of the capacity of flight , especially as the presumed atrophy affected only the distal part of the humerus while the proximal continued to be rather strongly developed .. proximal.

According to the illustration , the humerus seems merely to be weathered and the distal half simply broken off . ''. humerus. humerus. distal. Anatomical terms of location#Proximal and distal. Simpson -LRB- 1972 -RRB- concluded that the meagre remnant assigned to this genus was unidentifiable -LRB- though , contrary to Brodkorb -LRB- 1963 -RRB- , it was evidently not a junior synonym of Palaeospheniscus -RRB- , and left Palaeoapterodytes to sink into nomen dubium status .. nomen dubium. nomen dubium.
