Upper Cretaceous 96 Million Years Old
In 2018 paleontologists Nick Longrich, David Martill, and Brian Andres named a new species of pteranodontid, Tethydraco Regalis, from the Upper Cretaceous Couche III beds at the Sidi Daoui phosphate mines near Khouribga, Morocco. These rocks were formed in the final one million years of the Mesozoic Era and represent some of the last species of pterosaurs that lived before the K-Pg Extinction. Tethydraco is based on an isolated humerus which serves as the holotype, and several referred limb bones including two ulnae, a femur, and an articulated femur and tibia. The name translates to “royal Tethys dragon,” a reference to the ancient Tethys Ocean, which once spanned between northern Africa and Eurasia.
