Although enantiornitheans are often stereotyped as arboreal birds, several also occuipied terrestrial and aquatic niches. One particular clade of long-legged species was recovered in Hartman 2019, here tentatively dubbed Lectavidae.

Qiliania graffini was the earliest occuring of these species and certainly the most basal. It already had long legs, but it could still perch. Birds like ground cuckoos or doves are a good analogue for this weirdo.
