Iinyani ezimnandi
Batrachognathus means 'frog jaw' because its skull was short and wide, just like a frog's mouth.6
It lived about 161 to 155 million years ago, during the Late Jurassic period.2
Its fossils were found in very fine-grained shale, which was once the mud at the bottom of a large mountain lake.2
Only a few fossils have been found, including a well-preserved skull and some crushed bones.2
Batrachognathus belonged to a group of pterosaurs called Anurognathidae, which were small and often had short tails.6
