Re: More pterosaur goodness: Phobetor revised



JUNCHANG LU et al., “New Material of Dsungaripterid Pterosaurs (Pterosauria:
Pterodactyloidea) from Western Mongolia and Its Palaeoecological
Implications,” Geological Magazine 146, no. 05 (2009): 690-700

Abstract

New material of dsungaripterid pterosaurs from the Early Cretaceous of
Tatal, western Mongolia, allows the diagnoses of Dsungaripteridae and *
Noripterus* to be amended. All pterosaurs found at Tatal belong to
Dsungaripteridae (either *Dsungaripterus* or *Noripterus*). The name *
Phobetor* is a junior synonym of *Noripterus*. The differing shapes of the anterior tips of skulls, differing tooth morphologies and the coexistence of both *Dsungaripterus* and *Noripterus* may imply that they occupied distinct
ecological niches.
