Keresdrakon was a toothless flying reptile that soared over a hot desert in what is now Brazil. It lived alongside another pterosaur called Caiuajara and a small dinosaur named Vespersaurus.1

Inyani emnandi: iipterosauri zazibhabha phezu kweedayinaso, kodwa zazingabazala bazo, hayi iidayinaso ngokwazo.

izinto ezimnandi

Iinyani ezimnandi

Keresdrakon had a unique blunt ridge on the top of its lower jaw that no other pterosaur has.1

All the Keresdrakon fossils found so far are from late juveniles or sub-adults, not fully grown adults.1

It lived in a Cretaceous desert with interdunal wetlands, where water and food were scarce.1

Keresdrakon is one of the first pterosaurs found living together with another pterosaur species, showing they shared the same habitat.1

Its long, flat beak was good for picking up small or dead animals, similar to how a marabou stork feeds today.1

The name Keresdrakon means 'ghost dragon' in Greek, inspired by its mysterious desert home.1

Umfanekiso owenziwe yi-AI: Keresdrakon — Umfanekiso owenziwe yi-AI obonisa indlela Keresdrakon esenokuba wayekhangeleka ngayo, wenziwe yikhompyutha ngokwento eyaziwa zizazinzulu. Kukuqikelela nje: esona silwanyana sinokuba sasikhangeleka ngenye indlela, kwaye akukho mntu waziyo imibala yaso yokwenyani.

ubuzile

Eyona mibuzo ibuzwa kakhulu: Keresdrakon

?What did Keresdrakon eat?

It was probably an opportunistic predator or scavenger, eating small animals, eggs, or carcasses, similar to a marabou stork today.1

?When did Keresdrakon live?

It lived during the Early Cretaceous, about 125 to 100.5 million years ago, though the exact age of its rock formation is debated.3

?Was Keresdrakon a dinosaur?

No, it was a pterosaur, a flying reptile that is not a dinosaur.3

?Did Keresdrakon live with other pterosaurs?

Yes, it lived alongside another pterosaur called Caiuajara, and this is the first direct evidence of two pterosaur species living together.3 1

Igama lenzululwazi: Keresdrakon
Inikwe igama ngu:: Kellner et al. 20194
Iqela: Izirhubuluzi ezibhabhayo
Usapho / iclade: Tapejaromorpha4
Ukuhlelwa: Pterosauria > Pterodactyloidea4
Ubudala bamatye: 121 ukuya ku-72 izigidi zeminyaka (Aptian / Campanian)4
Izakhiwo zamatye: Goio-Erê4
Amazwe: iBrazil4
Iirekhodi zeefosili: 1 kwi-Paleobiology Database4
Ukufunyanwa: Keresdrakon was named in 2019 by Alexander Kellner and his team based on a partial skeleton found at the Cemitério dos Pterossauros site in Brazil.4 1
Kusaxoxwa ngayo: Scientists are not sure how old the rocks containing Keresdrakon are. They could be from the Early Cretaceous (about 121 million years ago) or the Late Cretaceous (about 72 million years ago).1
