The 17 pages that link to Pterosaur wing, each with the reason it gives.

• PterosaurBroader topic: Its unusual finger-supported membrane distinguishes pterosaur flight from bird and bat wings.

• Pterosaur flightBroader topic: Its membrane and skeletal supports formed the lifting surface used in powered flight.

• PterosauriaBroader topic: The elongated fourth finger supported the membrane that gave pterosaurs their characteristic wings.

• Bat wingCompared with: Pterosaurs also flew with membranes, but their supporting skeleton differed from bats’.

• QuetzalcoatlusRelated: Its wing structure enabled flight despite the animal's enormous size.

• PterodactylusBroader topic: The exceptionally long fourth finger supported the wing membrane.

• RhamphorhynchusRelated: Its wing structure powered flight in Rhamphorhynchus.

• Bird wingCompared with: Its membrane-and-finger structure differs from the feathered bird wing.

• Pterosaur classificationBroader topic: Wing anatomy supplies characters used to distinguish major pterosaur lineages.

• Pterosaur paleobiologyBroader topic: Wing structure underlies estimates of flight performance and locomotion.

• DimorphodonRelated: Its short wings were built on the characteristic pterosaur wing plan.

• AzhdarchidaeRelated: The wing structure constrained how giant azhdarchids launched and flew.

• TapejaridaeRelated: Tapejarids shared the characteristic pterosaur wing despite their unusual skulls.

• AnurognathidaeRelated: Wing anatomy helps place anurognathids among flying pterosaurs.

• DsungaripterusRelated: Its pterosaur relatives shared the distinctive membrane wing, though its skull is better known.

• OrnithocheirusRelated: Wing bones help identify and compare the fragmentary fossils attributed to Ornithocheirus.

• PeteinosaurusRelated: Its narrow wing proportions are central to reconstructions of Peteinosaurus's flight.
