Serradraco's name means 'saw dragon' because its lower jaw had a saw-like upper edge.1

The first fossils were just a pair of lower jaws, found by a collector named Samuel Husband Beckles.1

For a long time, scientists thought Serradraco belonged to other pterosaur groups, like Pterodactylus, Ornithocheirus, and Lonchodectes.1

A second specimen includes fused tail bones, a piece of jaw with teeth, and parts of a wing.1

Serradraco lived during the Early Cretaceous period, in the Berriasian to Valanginian ages.3

The teeth of Serradraco show microwear patterns similar to those of modern fish-eating reptiles, so it likely hunted fish.1
