  1. 🚨 NEW PTEROSAUR! 🚨

    Melkamter pateko was an early #monofenestratan pterosaur from the Chubut Province of Argentina! The holotype includes part of the #skull, a couple teeth, a few vertebrae, a metacarpal from one of the free fingers, and “other bone fragments”.

  3. Here’s #Dearc! The largest described #Jurassic #pterosaur!

    Dearc sgiathanach was a #rhamphorynchid found on the Isle of Skye in #Scotland, and described by Natalia Jagielska and Steve Brusatte. Its wingspan was estimated at about 2.5 meters (8.2 feet), which was much bigger than the next biggest #pterosaurs at that time!

  4. Here is Caelestiventus hanseni! One of the few #pterosaurs discovered from the #Triassic!

    This definitely has one of the best names of any #pterosaur! Its generic name translates to “heavenly wind”, which is definitely up there with #Sordes and #Cryodrakon!

  7. “Quick” Nyctosaurus Doodle
Please leave a like if you enjoy this style!
I’ve just started to understand how vertebrae look in 3D, and I have a LOT more to understand. To add more to the pile, pterosaur cervical vertebrae have unique joints, and it hurts my brain without physical sculpts or scans. If you have any info that might be helpful, please feel free to reach out!

  9. Decided on a whim to challenge myself by ignoring #pterosaur anatomy, and focusing on heavy #exaggeration and developing a character.
    So here’s a sketchy lookin’ #azhdarchid!
