🚨 NEW PTEROSAUR! 🚨
Infernodrakon hastacollis is the first ever #pterosaur named from the Hell Creek Formation! (This guy coexisted with #Tyrannosaurus and #Triceratops!) 🦖
The only piece known from it is a single, squished, but mostly complete neck bone, and it has possibly the longest length to width ratio of any other neck bone ever!! 🦴🔥#infernodrakon #infernodrakonhastacollis #newpterosaur #quetzalcoatlus #paleoart #paleontology #paleonews

🚨 NEW PTEROSAUR! 🚨
#Nipponopterus mifunensis is the first ever #pterosaur named from Japan! It’s based on a single, partial neck vertebra that was found to be distinct enough to name a new genus and species!!
I was too sick to make and post art these last two weeks, so any interactions to help me get back on my feet would be insanely helpful and immensely appreciated!!
Favoriting and boosting this post are the best ways to do that!

🚨 NEW PTEROSAUR! 🚨
Propterodactylus frankerlae was a #pterosaur from the late Jurassic of Germany, found in the famous Solnhofen limestone all the way back in 2011!
The holotype is a STUNNING specimen that has a bunch of features that match #pterosaurs like #Darwinopterus, but it ALSO has a bunch of features that match pterosaurs like #Pterodactylus!
