Abstract

Three main groups of large flightless birds are known from the Palaeogene of Europe: Gastornithidae, Ratitae, and Phorusrhacidae. Gastornithids have the longest and most complete record (Selandian to middle Lutetian). Ratites have a patchy record (Thanetian and Lutetian). Phorusrhacids are known only from the late Lutetian. Gastornithids probably originated in Europe, whereas phorusrhacids probably reached Europe from Africa.
