Pteranodontia is an extinct group of ornithocheiroid pterodactyloid pterosaurs that lived during the Late Cretaceous period (Coniacian to Maastrichtian stages) of North America and Africa. They were some of the most advanced pterosaurs, and possessed highly specialized cranial crests that may have served as sexual attraction, with males having a much larger crest.

  • Pteranodontia è un gruppo estinto di pterosauri ornithocheiroidi vissuti nel Cretaceo inferiore-superiore, circa 127-65 milioni di anni fa (Barremiano-Maastrichtiano) in Asia, Africa, Europa, Nord America e del Sud America. (it)
  • De Pteranodontia zijn een groep pterosauriërs behorend tot de Euornithocheira. In 1876 benoemde Othniel Charles Marsh een orde Pteranodontia, welke term verder weinig gebruikt werd. De Britse paleontoloog bemerkte in zijn kladistische analyses dat Nyctosaurus en de Pteranodontidae samen een klade, een monofyletische afstammingsgroep vormden. In 2003 gaf hij deze groep de naam van Marshes Pteranodontia. Unwin definieerde de klade als: de groep bestaande uit de laatste gemeenschappelijke voorouder van Nyctosaurus gracilis en Pteranodon longiceps en al zijn afstammelingen. (nl)
