Balaenognathus was a flying reptile that lived about 150 million years ago. It had a strange, spoon-shaped snout with hundreds of tiny hooked teeth. It used its beak like a strainer to scoop up tiny shrimp from the water, just like a modern flamingo.12

1

Balaenognathus had at least 480 teeth, more than most other pterosaurs.1

2

The tips of its teeth had tiny hooks, which have never been seen in any other pterosaur. These hooks helped trap shrimp so they couldn't escape.12

3

The front of its snout was shaped like a spatula and had no teeth, so water could flow in easily.1

4

Its upper jaw was more curved than its lower jaw, so its mouth stayed slightly open at the front even when closed.1

5

The fossil was found by accident in a quarry in Germany, inside a block of stone that also contained bones of a crocodile-like animal.12

6

Balaenognathus lived during the Late Jurassic period, about 152 to 149 million years ago.3

7

It had long legs, which helped it wade through shallow seas while feeding.2

?What did Balaenognathus eat?

It ate tiny shrimp and other small plankton. It used its spoon-shaped beak and hundreds of tiny hooked teeth to strain them out of the water.12

?How big was Balaenognathus?

It was a medium-sized pterosaur with a wingspan of 1.17 metres (3.8 feet). Its body was about 1 metre long.5

?Why did Balaenognathus have so many teeth?

Balaenognathus had over 480 long, slender teeth with tiny hooks at the tips. These teeth formed a fine mesh like a net to trap tiny shrimp while letting water escape.12

Balaenognathus was named by David Martill and colleagues in 2023. The only known fossil was found in September 2011 in a quarry near Wattendorf, Bavaria, Germany, by workers collecting a block of limestone.1

Scientists are not sure exactly how Balaenognathus used its hooked teeth and spatula-like snout to filter food, but they think it may have pumped water in and out by moving its long neck.1
