Happy #PterosaurPtuesday! This is Apatorhamphus, a pointy faced azhdarchoid pterosaur from #Cretaceous #Morocco! It was just named in 2020 based on a few snout fragments which may have belonged to something with a wingspan of 3–7 m or 9.8–23.0 ft.

New #pterosaur! In 2016, a paleontologist bought an illegally obtained fossil from the phosphate mines of Morocco that would become a new pterosaur genus, Apatorhamphus.

#Apatorhamphus gyrostega: este pterosaurio fue descrito a partir de un fragmento del cráneo, de manera que no hay muchos datos sobre él. La envergadura podría estar entre 3-7m, y pertenece probablemente a la familia Chaoyangopteridae
