Bennettazhia was a flying reptile that lived about 103 million years ago. It had a wingspan as wide as a small car and may have eaten shellfish like a seagull. This pterosaur lived along the coast of what is now Oregon, USA.12

1

Bennettazhia was first thought to be a species of Pteranodon, but later scientists realized it was a different kind of pterosaur.1

2

Its humerus (upper arm bone) was uncrushed and filled with a spongy tissue that made it strong but light. This helped scientists study how pterosaurs could launch from the ground.1

3

A fossil site in Oregon contained lots of broken ammonite shells and guano (poop) from pterosaurs. Scientists think Bennettazhia lived in big colonies on cliffs, like modern seagulls.2

4

Bennettazhia had a toothless beak with a hard tip, perfect for crushing shellfish.2

5

The name Bennettazhia honors scientist S. Christopher Bennett, who first suggested it was an azhdarchid pterosaur.1

6

Scientists are still debating whether Bennettazhia belongs to the Azhdarchidae, Dsungaripteridae, or Tapejaridae family.1

?How big was Bennettazhia?

About 4 metres (13 feet) across the wings, which is as wide as a small car.1

?What did Bennettazhia eat?

It probably ate shellfish like clams and ammonites, using its toothless beak to crush them, similar to modern seagulls.12

?Was Bennettazhia a dinosaur?

No, it was a pterosaur, which is a flying reptile and not a dinosaur.1

In 1928, Charles Gilmore named a new species of Pteranodon from fossils found in Oregon. In 1991, Russian paleontologist Lev Nessov renamed it Bennettazhia because it was actually a different pterosaur.1

Scientists are not sure which pterosaur family Bennettazhia belongs to. It has been placed in the Azhdarchidae, Dsungaripteridae, and Tapejaridae by different researchers.1
