1

Epapatelo is known from only a few bones: a partial upper arm bone and two forearm bones from two different individuals.1

2

It lived about 71 to 72 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous period.1

3

Epapatelo belonged to a group of pterosaurs called pteranodontians, which were large, toothless flying reptiles.1

4

The fossils were found in marine rocks, showing that Epapatelo lived near the sea and probably died in the water.1

5

Epapatelo is one of the few pterosaurs ever found in Africa from the very end of the dinosaur age.1

Scientists are not sure how big Epapatelo was, because only a few arm bones have been found.1
