Fakte argëtuese
Anhanguera had a crest on the front of its upper jaw, but it was set farther back on the skull than in its close relatives Coloborhynchus and Ornithocheirus.1
Some Anhanguera fossils have a small, blunt crest at the back of the skull, similar to other pteranodontoids.1
A study in 2003 showed that Anhanguera likely held its head at an angle to the ground, based on its inner ear structure, which helped it keep its balance.1
Anhanguera had bony rings in its eye sockets called scleral rings, which may have supported its eyes, similar to modern birds.1
The name Anhanguera comes from the Tupi language and means 'old spirit' or 'spirit protector of the animals'.1
Anhanguera lived during the Early to Late Cretaceous, from about 112 to 93 million years ago.1
