Igama lithetha: “wing filter”1

Pterofiltrus was a flying reptile that lived about 125 million years ago. It had a very long, narrow skull and lots of thin, pointy teeth that it used like a strainer to catch tiny animals in the water.1 2

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

izinto ezimnandi

Iinyani ezimnandi

Pterofiltrus had about 112 teeth in its head, which is a lot for a pterosaur.1 2

Its teeth covered more than half of the skull length, about 55.8%.1

The skull of Pterofiltrus was very long, about 208 millimetres (8.2 inches).1 2

Pterofiltrus had no bony crest on its head, unlike some other pterosaurs.1

Its lower jaw was also long, about 174 millimetres (6.9 inches), and had about 27 teeth.1

The front teeth of Pterofiltrus were longer than the back ones and pointed partly sideways.1

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

Igama lenzululwazi: Pterofiltrus
Inikwe igama ngu:: Jiang and Wang 20114
Iqela: Izirhubuluzi ezibhabhayo
Usapho / iclade: Ctenochasmatidae4
Ukuhlelwa: Pterosauria > Pterodactyloidea4
Ubudala bamatye: 126 ukuya ku-120 izigidi zeminyaka (Barremian / Aptian)4
Izakhiwo zamatye: Yixian4
Amazwe: iTshayina4
Iirekhodi zeefosili: 1 kwi-Paleobiology Database4
Ukufunyanwa: Pterofiltrus was named by scientists Jiang Shunxing and Wang Xiaolin in 2011. The only known fossil, a skull and some neck bones, was found at Zhangjiagou in Liaoning, China.1 2
Kusaxoxwa ngayo: Scientists are not sure exactly how Pterofiltrus used its many teeth to catch food, but they think it may have strained small animals from the water.1
