Wellnhopterus
Wellnhopterus was a flying reptile that lived in Texas during the time of the dinosaurs. It had a short, blunt beak and a stocky neck, making it look different from its cousin Quetzalcoatlus. It soared over the land hunting for food.1

Datu dibertigarriak
Wellnhopterus had a wingspan of about 3 metres (9 feet 10 inches), making it a mid-sized pterosaur.1
Its blunt snout and shorter, sturdier neck were very different from the long, slender jaws of its relative Quetzalcoatlus.1
Scientists think Wellnhopterus was a raptorial hunter, meaning it may have caught relatively large prey compared to its size.1
The fossils were first thought to belong to Quetzalcoatlus, but later studies showed they were a different animal.1
Wellnhopterus lived about 72 to 66 million years ago, during the Maastrichtian age of the Late Cretaceous.2
Its name honors German paleontologist Peter Wellnhofer, who first illustrated the fossil in 1991.1
