Holotype finger of Linhenykus monodactylus (IVPP V17608), the only "true" one-fingered dinosaur known. Unlike its relatives, including the well-known Mononykus, which retained tiny vestigial fingers alongside the primary finger, Linhenykus is uniquely characterized by the complete absence of any additional fingers.
