Anhanguera was a flying reptile that soared over ancient seas. It had a long, toothy beak and a wingspan as wide as a car. It was not a dinosaur, but a pterosaur, a close cousin of dinosaurs.1

Ebyewuunyisa

1

Anhanguera had a crest on the front of its upper jaw, but it was set farther back on the skull than in its close relatives Coloborhynchus and Ornithocheirus.1

2

Some Anhanguera fossils have a small, blunt crest at the back of the skull, similar to other pteranodontoids.1

3

A study in 2003 showed that Anhanguera likely held its head at an angle to the ground, based on its inner ear structure, which helped it keep its balance.1

4

Anhanguera had bony rings in its eye sockets called scleral rings, which may have supported its eyes, similar to modern birds.1

5

The name Anhanguera comes from the Tupi language and means 'old spirit' or 'spirit protector of the animals'.1

6

Anhanguera lived during the Early to Late Cretaceous, from about 112 to 93 million years ago.1
