Annakacygna is a genus of flightless marine swan from the Miocene of Japan. Named in 2022, Annakacygna displays a series of unique adaptations setting it apart from any other known swan, including a filter feeding lifestyle, a highly mobile tail and wings that likely formed a cradle for their hatchlings in a fashion similar to modern mute swans. Additionally, it may have used both wings and tail as a form of display. All of these traits combined have led the researchers working on it to dub it "the ultimate bird". Two species are known, A. hajimei, which was approximately the size of a black swan, and A. yoshiiensis which exceeded the mute swan in both size and weight. The describing authors proposed the vernacular name Annaka short-winged swan for the genus.

  • アンナカキグナ(学名:Annakacygna)は、約1150万年前にあたる新第三系中新統から化石が産出した、ハクチョウに近縁な絶滅鳥類の属。体長は1.2 - 1.3メートルと推定され、嘴の形状から濾過摂食者としての生態、翼の形状から雛の運搬や求愛行動の示唆が得られている。 日本の群馬県で発見されており、アンナカキグナ・ハジメイとアンナカキグナ・ヨシイエンシスの2種が2022年に命名された。前者の化石は2000年1月に同県安中市、後者の化石は1995年頃に同県の旧吉井町で発見され、前者がタイプ種とされる。前者の和名としてアンナカコバネハクチョウがある。 (ja)
  • Annakacygna (il cui nome significa "cigno di Annaka") è un genere estinto di cigno marino incapace di volare vissuto nel Miocene superiore, circa 11.5 milioni di anni fa, in Giappone. Descritto nel 2022, Annakacygna mostra una serie di adattamenti unici che lo distinguono da qualsiasi altro cigno conosciuto, tra cui uno stile di vita marino, una dieta da filtratore, una coda altamente mobile e ali che probabilmente formavano una "culla" per i pulcini in un modo simile ai moderni cigni reali. Inoltre, potrebbe aver usato sia le ali che la coda come forma di esibizione. Tutti questi tratti combinati hanno portato i ricercatori che hanno lavorato alla sua descrizione a soprannominarlo "l'uccello definitivo". Il genere contiene due specie: A. hajimei, che aveva all'incirca le dimensioni di un (it)
