Another Fully-Formed Pterosaur Reported

Like all the others, this Aussie pterosaur
was already fully equipped for powered flight.

 

Note: During June, reporting will be brief or intermittent. Enjoy the Search Bar, Features and back issues.

Study finds 107-million-year-old pterosaur bones are oldest in Australia (Curtin University, 30 May 2023).

The team found the bones belonged to two different pterosaur individuals. The partial pelvis bone belonged to a pterosaur with a wingspan exceeding two meters, and the small wing bone belonged to a juvenile pterosaur—the first ever reported in Australia.

The article does not mention evolution or transitional forms.
