Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Potential variation in terrestrial locomotion gait in non-pterodactyloid pterosaurs. (A) life restoration of the Early Jurassic rhamphorhynchine Dorygnathus banthensis with obligated crouching, somewhat sprawled forelimbs; (B) life restoration of the Early Jurassic species Dimorphodon macronyx with fully adducted humeri and parasagittal gait, shown here facilitating subcursorial, rapid terrestrial locomotion in pursuit of sphenodontian prey. Both animals are restored with retracted claws on digits possessing antungual sesamoids.
