Jibeinia

Jibeinia is a Genus of enantiornithine bird. Only one species is known, Jibeinia luanhera. It is known from one holotype fossil found in the Liaoning province, People's Republic of China. This fossil is now lost. The holotype was, however, described and figured in detail by Hou (1997).

In the summer of 1993, the holotype was presented to engineer Li Pai of the Hebei Provincial Office of Geology by a local farmer. Li, along with Hou Linhai and Zhou Zhonghe, investigated the quarry from which it came, at the locality of the Dongtuyao brick factory, Northern Hebei Province, Linjituxiang Village. They determined that it was collected from the Yixian Formation. However, later research into the geology of the area showed that it actually came from similarly-aged beds of the Huajiying Formation.

J. luanhera was described from a nearly complete fossil. The fossil seems not to have ever received a catalog number, nor to have been accessioned by a museum.
