#Anurognathids ate #insects at night https://archosaurmusings.wordpress.com/2023/01/02/anurognathid-pterosaurs-ate-insects-at-night/
Evolutionary pressures of aerial #insectivory reflected in anurognathid pterosaurs https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/joa.13814
#Anurognathid heads shapes in terms of their gape is really similar to that of #birds that catch insects on the wing (#swallows, #nightjars) and not like that of other #pterosaurs. Their eyes are huge and again are like those of #nocturnal, or low-light operating birds (in fact they are generally proportionally even larger).
