Laueropterus is an extinct genus of monofenestratan pterosaur known from the Late Jurassic Mörnsheim Formation of Germany. The genus contains a single species, Laueropterus vitriolus, known from a partial skeleton and skull discovered in 2007 and scientifically named in 2026. With a wingspan of about 1 metre (3.3 ft), it was larger than most other early monofenestratans. It coexisted with Makrodactylus, Skiphosoura, and "Rhamphodactylus", all of which are likely close relatives.
