Scaphognathus was a small pterosaur with a blunt snout and a long tail. It flew over warm Jurassic lagoons and snatched fish from the water. Unlike many pterosaurs, it was probably awake during the day.1

Dintlha tse monate

1

Scaphognathus had a short, blunt skull only about 11 centimetres (4.5 inches) long.1

2

It had 16 teeth in the upper jaw and 10 in the lower jaw, and they pointed straight up and down, not forward.1

3

A second specimen found was much smaller, with a wingspan of only 50 centimetres (20 inches), and scientists think it was a juvenile.1

4

Scaphognathus lived during the Late Jurassic, about 155 to 150 million years ago.1

5

Its eye bones (scleral rings) suggest it was diurnal, or active during the day, unlike some other pterosaurs that were nocturnal.1

6

The first fossil was described in 1831 by August Goldfuss, who thought it was a species of Pterodactylus.1

Dipotso tse botswang haholo ka Scaphognathus

?How big was Scaphognathus?

Scaphognathus had a wingspan of about 0.9 metres (3 feet). A second, smaller specimen had a wingspan of only about 50 centimetres (20 inches) and was probably a juvenile.12

?What did Scaphognathus eat?

Scaphognathus was a carnivore, meaning it ate meat. Its main food was a type of ancient fish called Pholidophorus.2

?Was Scaphognathus a dinosaur?

No, Scaphognathus was a pterosaur, a flying reptile, not a dinosaur. It lived during the Late Jurassic, about 155 to 150 million years ago.12

?Why did Scaphognathus have a long tail?

Scaphognathus had a long tail that ended in a leaf-shaped flap. This probably helped it steer and balance while flying, like a rudder on a boat.2

Mosenyi wa ditshomo

Tshomo: Scaphognathus is sometimes confused with Rhamphorhynchus because both have long tails.

Nnete: Scaphognathus had a shorter, blunter skull and vertical teeth, while Rhamphorhynchus had a longer, thinner skull with forward-pointing teeth.1

The first Scaphognathus fossil was described by August Goldfuss in 1831 from the Solnhofen Limestone near Eichstätt, Germany. He originally named it a new species of Pterodactylus. In 1861, Johann Wagner gave it its own genus name Scaphognathus.1

Scientists are not sure whether some fossils from China belong to Scaphognathus or to a related pterosaur.3
