Summary- New research of Universities of Portsmouth and Leicester has identified a small fossil fragment at the National History Museum. The identification of the fossil is being one of the world’s largest toothed pterosaur. This fossil is part of the species of the pterosaur. It is a pterosaur, Coloborhynchus. It is the biggest pterosaur they have ever seen. Pterosaurs are flying reptiles that lived in the Mesozoic Era with dinosaurs between 210 and 65 million years ago.




Critique- Just now there is news out about this pterosaur. This is an amazing discovery since pterosaur aren’t as big but this new one pterosaur, Coloborhynchus is one of the biggest of them all. They also have a big tooth. The mouth is very big for the pterosaur, Coloborhynchus.



Impact- They are finding more and more species of different animals, and reptiles. This will help us to better understand of the evolution of what has happened from millions of years ago. To help us now with the differences of the species.
