Brasileodactylus
Brasileodactylus was a flying reptile that soared over the warm seas of Early Cretaceous Brazil. It had a long pointed snout full of sharp, forward-pointing teeth, perfect for catching fish. Unlike many of its relatives, it had no crest on its snout or lower jaw.1

Brasileodactylus lived about 112 million years ago during the Early Cretaceous.1
Its wingspan was about 4 meters (13 feet), and it weighed around 10 kilograms (22 pounds).1
The first fossil found was just the front part of a lower jaw, discovered by paleontologist Alexander Kellner in 1984.1
Some scientists think Brasileodactylus might be the same animal as Cearadactylus, another pterosaur from the same time and place.1
It had no crest on its snout or lower jaw, but it might have had a small crest on the back of its skull.1
Brasileodactylus is known from several fossils, including a nearly complete skull and a partial skeleton.1
