Today is #FossilFriday & #9Octubre, Valencian National Day, so here you have some pictures of the up-to-date described dinosaur species from my homeland: Losillasaurus giganteus, Morelladon beltrani, and Vallibonavenatrix cani #bonadiada #tornaremde9 #somiserem

In our phyl-analysis, we recovered Siroccopteryx close to Tropeognathus (as @MeganJPalaeo et al.), but also the 🇦🇺anhanguerids Ferrodraco & Mythunga in a new clade now named Tropeognathinae. Here a detail of Tropeognathus and a life restoration by @metazoastudio #FossilFriday

Last year, in Iberodactylus paper, we recovered the clade Coloborhynchinae for this peculiar flatten-snout anhanguerids. Also last year, @MeganJPalaeo & Co. published the 1st certain finding of a close species to Coloborhynchus from Kem Kem 🇲🇦(paper here: thttps://bit.ly/3i0fdNv)

Today is #FossilFriday and a new pterosaur species comes to light! Welcome to #Mimodactylus libanensis. Follow here our publication in @SciReports: https://t.co/iSAKySWsDc

Among other features, targaryendraconians are characterised by comparatively slender jaws. Together with Aussiedraco and Barbosania, #Targaryendraco form a new clade (Targaryendraconidae) whilst Cimoliopterus, Camposipterus and Aetodactylus are its sister-clade (Cimoliopteridae)

@KellnerMn @RenanBantim @JulianaSayao Finally, the `cemitério dos pterossauros´ shows the co-occurrence of two pterosaur species, #Keresdrakon & Caiuajara, and a theropod dinosaur, the recent-published Vespersaurus, can confidently be regarded as part of the same paleobiological community. Welcome to Cretaceous Park!

Nyctosaurus lamegoi was the 1st pterosaur discovered in #Brazil at 1953. I took this photo of N.lamegoi 3 days after the fire of the @MuseuNacional. It was a glimmer of hope albeit we still don't know how collections are. Nyctosaurus illustration by @MarkWitton #FossilFriday

Pterosaur mothers carried their eggs inside their bodies until just before hatching. That gives their babies warmth & protection until they are ready to hatch. They could do this because they are lepidosaurs, as phylogenetic analysis & egg shell thickness and pliability tells us.
