Uktenadactylus was a flying reptile that soared over the seas of Texas and England about 110 million years ago. It had a big crest on its snout and a mouth full of sharp teeth, perfect for catching fish. This pterosaur was not a dinosaur, but a close relative of the famous Pterodactyl.1 4

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

izinto ezimnandi

Iinyani ezimnandi

Uktenadactylus is known from only a few snout fragments, so scientists are still guessing its full size.1

The name Uktenadactylus comes from the Uktena, a giant horned snake in Cherokee legends, and the Greek word for finger.1

Its snout had a crest that curved upward and was about 7.5 centimetres (3 inches) tall at its highest point.1

The third pair of teeth in its upper jaw were the biggest, each about 1.8 centimetres (0.7 inches) wide.1

Uktenadactylus lived during the Early Cretaceous period, about 125 to 100 million years ago.4

It belonged to a group of pterosaurs called anhanguerids, which had long, toothed jaws and often fished near coasts.1

Umfanekiso owenziwe yi-AI: Uktenadactylus — Umfanekiso owenziwe yi-AI obonisa indlela Uktenadactylus 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: Uktenadactylus

?How big was Uktenadactylus?

Scientists estimate it had a wingspan of about 7 to 8 metres, possibly up to 9 metres. This is based on comparisons with similar pterosaurs like Coloborhynchus and Tropeognathus.3

?What did Uktenadactylus eat?

It ate fish. Its long, toothed jaws and sharp teeth were perfect for catching fish near the coast.1

?Is Uktenadactylus a dinosaur?

No, it is a pterosaur, a flying reptile that is not a dinosaur. It is a close relative of Pterodactyl.1

Kwiingcali zeedayinaso

Igama lenzululwazi: Uktenadactylus
Inikwe igama ngu:: Rodrigues and Kellner 20084
Iqela: Izirhubuluzi ezibhabhayo
Usapho / iclade: Anhangueridae4
Ukuhlelwa: Pterosauria > Pterodactyloidea4
Ubudala bamatye: 126 ukuya ku-100 izigidi zeminyaka (Barremian / Albian)4
Izakhiwo zamatye: Paw Paw, Wessex4
Amazwe: iUSA, iUnited Kingdom4
Iirekhodi zeefosili: 2 kwi-Paleobiology Database4
Ukufunyanwa: The first fossil, a partial snout, was found in 1992 in Tarrant County, Texas, by Chris Wadleigh. In 1994, Yuong Nam-Lee named it Coloborhynchus wadleighi. In 2009, Brazilian paleontologists Taissa Rodrigues and Alexander Kellner gave it its own genus, Uktenadactylus.1
Kusaxoxwa ngayo: Scientists are not sure how big Uktenadactylus was, because only pieces of its snout have been found.1
