Dintlha tse di monate

Mimodactylus is the most complete pterosaur ever found from the Afro-Arabian continent, which includes Africa and Arabia.2

Its wingspan was about 1.32 meters (4.3 feet), which is about as wide as a tall adult human's arm span.2

It had 11 cone-shaped teeth in the upper jaw and 10 in the lower jaw, all on the front half of its mouth.2

Mimodactylus lived in a warm sea with many islands, far from any large continent.2

Scientists think it flew like an albatross, gliding low over the water to snatch food.2

?How big was Mimodactylus?

Mimodactylus was small, with a wingspan of about 1.32 meters (4.3 feet), which is about as wide as a tall adult human's arm span. The skull was only about 99 mm (3.9 inches) long.1 2

?Is Mimodactylus a dinosaur?

No, Mimodactylus is not a dinosaur. It is a pterosaur, a flying reptile that lived at the same time as dinosaurs.1

?When did Mimodactylus live?

Go fitlhelwa: The only known skeleton was found in the Hjoûla Lagerstätte in Lebanon, a famous fossil site for fish and invertebrates. It was bought by an anonymous donor and given to the MIM Museum in Beirut. In 2019, a team led by Alexander Kellner named it Mimodactylus libanensis.2 1
