Paleontologists have unearthed the fossilized remains of ancient pterosaurs in Germany, dating back approximately 210 million years. This discovery, within the Late Triassic period, includes the remains of several pterosaurs, along with the remains of a larger number of dinosaurs dating back approximately 65 million years. This discovery of the giant asteroid that wiped out 80% of life on Earth. These findings include the discovery of various pterosaur species in the geological layers of the planet. The giant pterosaurs we know had a wingspan of up to 12 meters. These pterosaurs were found to have lived in all the seas and continents of the Earth, including Antarctica. The new species' remains are named Spathagnathus roeperi, found in the "Solnhofen" area of Germany, a place known for its well-preserved fossils. This new species is associated with the Tacuadactylus luciae pterosaur remains, which are found in the Jurassic period.
