COMMENTS ON TRIASSIC PTEROSAURS WITH A COMMENTARY ON THE "ONTOGENETIC STAGES" OF KELLNER (2015) AND THE VALIDITY OF BERGAMODACTYLUS WILDI

open access: yesRivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2018
Six stages (OS1-6) were identified by Kellner (2015) to establish the ontogeny of a given pterosaur fossil. These were used to support the erection of several new Triassic taxa including Bergamodactylus wildi, which is based on a single specimen (MPUM ...

A new toothless pterosaur (Pterodactyloidea) from Southern Brazil with insights into the paleoecology of a Cretaceous desert

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências
Abstract: The first pterosaur bone bed from Brazil was reported in 2014 at the outskirts of the town Cruzeiro do Oeste, Paraná State, in the Southern region of the country. Here named 'cemitério dos pterossauros' site, these outcrops were referred to the

Extending the Geographic Range of Pterosaurs in the Araripe Basin: First Record from the Romualdo Formation (Araripe Basin) in Piauí, Brazil [PDF]

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências
The Araripe Basin in northeastern Brazil is a key site for Cretaceous pterosaur fossils from Gondwanan deposits. Most discoveries are concentrated in its northern portion, particularly in Ceará state, within the Crato and Romualdo formations. In contrast,

The Evolution of Pneumatic Foramina in Pterosaur Vertebrae

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2019
: Pterosaurs possess skeletal pneumatization, which can be assessed externally through the observation of pneumatic foramina. These foramina vary in position, shape, and number among taxa.

Seazzadactylus venieri gen. et sp. nov., a new pterosaur (Diapsida: Pterosauria) from the Upper Triassic (Norian) of northeastern Italy

open access: yes, 2021
A new non-monofenestratan pterosaur with multicusped dentition, Seazzadactylus venieri, is described from the Upper Triassic (middle-upper Norian) of the Carnian Prealps (northeastern Italy). The holotype of S. venieri preserves a complete mandibular and

Biomechanical and physiological influences on the osteohistological deposition of Anhangueria (Pterosauria, Pterodactyloidea)

open access: yesREVISTA BRASILEIRA DE PALEONTOLOGIA, 2015
The study of bone microstructure preserved in fossils provides substantial information about physiology, growth gradients and strategies, and some ecological considerations. Paleohistology is a useful tool for understanding the biological mechanisms of extinct animals. Presented here is the microstructure characterization of two Anhangueria pterosaurs.
