Pterosaurs, the remarkable flying reptiles of the extinct Pterosauria clade, dominated the skies throughout the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous periods, about 228 to 66 million years ago. As the first vertebrates to achieve powered flight, their wings were crafted from a unique membrane stretching from their ankles to an elongated fourth finger. Early species boasted long, toothed jaws and tails, while later ones evolved shorter tails and some lost their teeth entirely. Their hollow, lightweight bones, similar to birds', offered strong muscle attachment and exceptional flight capability. With a keeled breastbone for powerful muscles and an enlarged brain for precise flight control, pterosaurs represent an extraordinary chapter in natural history. Owning a fossil like this connects you directly to that incredible legacy.
