A reappraisal of azhdarchid pterosaur functional morphology and paleoecology [PDF]
, 2008 Azhdarchid pterosaurs were among the most widespread and successful of pterosaur clades, but their paleoecology remains controversial. Morphological features common to all azhdarchids include a long, shallow rostrum; elongate, cylindrical cervical ...

Variable preservation potential and richness in the fossil record of vertebrates
Palaeontology, Volume 63, Issue 2, Page 313-329, March 2020., 2020 Abstract Variation in preservation and sampling probability clouds our estimates of past biodiversity. The most extreme examples are Lagerstätten faunas and floras. Although such deposits provide a wealth of information and represent true richness better than other deposits, they can create misleading diversity peaks because of their species richness ...

The phylogenetic position of the Pterosauria within the Archosauromorpha [PDF]
Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 1996 In recent years the hypothesis that pterosaurs were the major sister-group of dinosaurs and a closely-linked hypothesis that pterosaurs evolved flight from the ground up have gained general acceptance. A cladistic analysis of the Archosauromorpha using characters presented by previous workers results in a single most parsimonious tree with the ...
