"The neoaves are one of the most diverse clades of birds, including many species that vary wildly in appearance. Most of these variations first developed rapidly after the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction event." ― Description of the Rapid Diversification Upgrade, a requirement for the Neoaves generator.
Neoaves is the 4th and final bird generator, and the 8th and final reptile generator unlocked in the game. Neoaves requires Mesozoic Valley Rank 38.
Design[]
In-game, Neoaves takes the appearance of a blue jay (Cyanocitta cristata). A party of six blue jays fly through the temperate forest and plains region of the Land garden. A party of six more fly in the Stone Age peninsula of the Civilization garden. The Neoaves have a flapping animation.

The Neoaves have three Trophy Upgrades, the most out of any Rise of Reptiles Generators.
Penguin[]
Penguins take the appearance of emperor penguins (Aptenodytes forsteri). A colony of eleven penguins (including two chicks) are located in the Arctic section of the Land garden, settling on an island offshore from the mainland section. A whale (Cetaceans) occasionally passes the strait between the penguin island and the mainland. The penguins have a waddling animation.
The penguin squawks when clicked on.
Parrot[]
Parrots take the appearance of a scarlet macaw (Ara macao). A lone parrot stands upon a branch in the jungle section of the Land garden, close to the panda (Caniform) and the kiwis (Palaeognathae). The parrot has an idle animation.
The parrot squeals when clicked on.
Eagle[]
Eagles take the appearance of a unknown species of eagle (part of Family Accipitridae). A single eagle flies the highest out of any other animal in the Land garden, circling around the map just slightly below the level of the tallest peak. Another eagle appears in the Civilization garden, flying just below the top level of the Age of Discovery tower. The eagle has a flying animation.
The eagle squeals when clicked on.
In-Game Description[]
"Almost 95% of all known species of birds belong to the Neoave clade. They are extremely diverse, and appeared shortly after the extinction of the dinosaurs."
Evolution Upgrades[]
All upgrades only require 1 Neoaves to unlock. The Neoaves have 17 Upgrades, the most out of any Rise of Reptiles generators. The maximum pre-Singularity efficiency is x2,184,667.79 (rounded to hundredths since efficiency is ridiculously long).

Owning them increases the efficiency of the Neoaves. The Trophies add up to a maximum pre-Singularity efficiency of x12.8535.
Achievements[]
Generator Achievements[]
- Blue Bruisers (Create 25 Neoaves):
"Blue Jays are known for being noisy and aggressive, and will scare away predatory birds such as hawks. However, they are quite territorial and sometimes attack smaller birds that they see as competition, and have even been known to decapitate them. "
- Turning Heads (Create 50 Neoaves):
"Owls have twice the number of vertebrae as humans, which allows them to turn their heads nearly 270 degrees. This range of motion, combined with their advanced stereoscopic night vision, allows them to track prey from a great distance."
- Mimicry Mayhem (Create 100 Neoaves):
"Many birds are excellent mimics, most notably parrots. Ravens share this talent, in addition to being able to imitate calls of predatory animals such as wolves and foxes and even sounds like car engines or toilets flushing."
- Little Bird, Big Appetite (Create 150 Neoaves):
"Hummingbirds are incredibly lightweight, and are known for their ability to hover due to their incredibly fast wingbeats. To power this, they have one of the fastest metabolisms of any animal, and must eat up to three times their weight in nectar in order to maintain their energy."
- Coalmine Casualties (Create 250 Neoaves):
"Miners used to tuse birds to detect the presence of hazardous gases–when a small bird was brought underground, if it fainted or died, they would know that carbon monoxide was present. This is where the term "canary in a coal mine" comes from."
Notes/Trivia[]
- "Neoaves" translates to "new birds".
