Eopteranodon belonged to the Tapejaridae family, a group of pterosaurs with big head crests and downturned snouts.12
The first fossil of Eopteranodon was found in 2005 in Liaoning, China, a region famous for many amazing pterosaur and dinosaur fossils.1
A second species, Eopteranodon yixianensis, was named in 2023, but some scientists think it might not be a separate species.12
Eopteranodon lived about 125 million years ago, during the Early Cretaceous period.2
