Bakonydraco

---

As is the case with many pterosaurs, Bakonydraco is represented in the fossil record by frustratingly incomplete remains, mostly comprising its lower jaw. Based on some distinctive anatomical structures, though, it's clear that this was a medium-sized, "azhdarchid" pterosaur ancestral to later giants like Quetzalcoatlus and Zhejiangopterus--and, judging by the distinctive shape of its skull, Bakonydraco probably pursued a highly specialized diet, either consisting of fish or fruit (or possibly both).
