Species of the weekFlying PterosaurSome facts about this pterosaur: Wingspan: 10–11 meters. Total length: 9–10 meters. Weight: 200–250 kilograms. Habitat: Some experts think these reptiles lived on open plains or wetlands, feeding much like large storks today. Others think they may have been feeding upon the carcasses of dinosaurs, like modern vultures. Older ideas that they fed on fish at sea like modern albatrosses are now discredited as structurally unworkable. Age of existence: 70.6 to 65 million years ago. Distribution: Fossils were discovered in North America (Texas). Diet: Small vertebrates. First described: By the geologist and paleontologist Douglas A. Lawson in 1975.
