A Late Cretaceous Lonchodectid? [PDF]
AbstractA pterosaur ulnar specimen (NZMS CD 467) from the Mangahouanga Stream of New Zealand’s North Island has been first described by Wiffen et al 1988. Assumed to belong to a“Santanadactylus-like” pterosaur, this taxon has not since been extensively described, with only a few tentative claims that it represents an azhdarchid.

New data on the age of an Upper Cretaceous clastic-carbonate succession in Brežđe (NW Serbia)
Radiolarian assemblages of Late Cretaceous age were studied in a carbonate-clastic section from the Cretaceous sedimentary cover that unconformably overlies Triassic sediments of the Jadar Block. According to the identified radiolarian associations, the
