Zvinonakidza
Liaodactylus is the oldest known filter-feeding pterosaur, living about 160 million years ago in the Late Jurassic.1
Its skull was only 133 mm long, but it held 152 teeth in total, arranged like a comb to trap food.1
The name Liaodactylus means 'Liaoning finger', after the province in China where it was found.1
Liaodactylus belonged to a group called Ctenochasmatidae, which were all filter-feeders with long snouts and many teeth.1
This pterosaur lived alongside small dinosaurs, mammals, and salamanders in the Yanliao Biota of China.1
Liaodactylus had a large opening in its skull called a nasoantorbital fenestra, which is a feature of advanced pterosaurs.1

Mubvisi wengano
Ngano: Some people think all pterosaurs ate fish or meat.
Chokwadi: Liaodactylus was a filter-feeder, straining tiny creatures from water with its comb-like teeth, not catching fish.1
