1

Tropeognathus is one of the largest pterosaurs ever found in the southern continents (Gondwana).1

2

A huge specimen (MN 6594-V) had a wingspan of about 8.26 to 8.7 metres, as wide as a small airplane.1

3

It lived during the Early Cretaceous, about 119 to 113 million years ago.2

4

Tropeognathus had a low, blunt crest on the top of its skull, unlike some other pterosaurs with tall crests.1

5

Its name means 'keel jaw', because of the ridge on its lower jaw that looks like a boat's keel.4

6

The first fossil of Tropeognathus was a skull and lower jaw found in Brazil.4
