1. Title: "Discovering the Anatomy of the Giants: Dinornis sp. Moa Skeletons, July 1907" This photograph, inscribed by J. Benjamin Stone in July 1907, showcases a remarkable find from the Natural History Museum Archive (PH 128/6). The image presents a collection of skeletons belonging to Dinornis sp., an extinct species of moa, a flightless bird native to New Zealand. Moas were ratite birds, a group of large, flightless birds that also includes the ostrich, emu, and rhea. The Dinornis genus is particularly noteworthy for its large size, with some species reaching up to 12 feet (3.7 meters) in height. The skeletons in this photograph provide a fascinating glimpse into the anatomy of these giant birds, which once roamed the forests and grasslands of New Zealand. The Sauropsida classification includes both reptiles and birds, and moas are part of the Aves subclass. The Dinornithiformes order and Dinornithidae family to which Dinornis belongs are characterized by their robust, heavy skeletal structures. The anatomy of these birds reveals adaptations for their terrestrial lifestyle, such as powerful legs for locomotion and a large, keeled sternum for flightless flight muscles. This photograph is a valuable historical record of these extinct birds and offers a unique perspective on the natural history of New Zealand. The intricate details of the bones, preserved for over a century, continue to captivate and inspire researchers and visitors alike. The Natural History Museum's extensive archive, including this photograph, is an invaluable resource for understanding the evolution and diversity of life on Earth.
