New Jurassic Pterosaur Unearthed in Germany
Un nouveau ptérosaure du Jurassique découvert en Allemagne
Allemagne Jurassique fossile Monofenestrata Pterosauria +2
Les paléontologues ont décrit un nouveau genre et une nouvelle espèce de ptérosaure monofenestratan précoce sur la base d'un squelette fossile presque complet et bien conservé découvert en Bavière, en Allemagne. L'article Un nouveau ptérosaure jurassique découvert en Allemagne est apparu en premier sur Sci.News : Breaking Science News.
