large pterosaurs that stayed on the wing across oceans for days at a time like albatrosses, and pterosaurs that stood in briny shallows and filter fed like pink flamingos. Among the most exciting ...

The first pterosaurs had a sail-like tensioning system for flying with potentially cumbersome tail vanes, which they could have used for displays, a new study finds.

The microarchitecture of fossil pterosaur bones could be replicated to develop materials for next-gen aircraft.

The consensus is that, like other pterosaurs, Pteranodon was quadrupedal when on the ground, walking on all fours with its ...

Studying the ancient flying reptiles that lived alongside dinosaurs could help engineers make aeroplanes that are more ...

Pterosaurs, Greek for “wing lizards,” arrived on the scene in the Triassic Period, perhaps as early as around 237 million years ago. These original vertebrate fliers preceded birds by at least ...

The same goes for anybody who went for a plesiosaur: they weren't dinosaurs, and neither were their flying pals. “You may ...
