Pteranodon (uniné /tɨˈrænədɒn/; saka basa Yunani Kuno πτερ-"swiwi" lan αν-οδων"rak duwé untu")saka akir jaman Cretaceous,ya iku salah sijining génus pterosauria sing gedhé dhéwé lan duwé epek-epek swiwi sing paling maksimal, ya iku ambané punjul 6 mèter (20 kaki).[1] Pteranodon iku dingerteni saka akèhé fosil sing spesimene paling akèh tinemu lan paling komplit,ya iku sawatara 1200 spésimèn sing dingerteni déning para ilmuwan.[2] Akèh saka spésimèn-spésimèn mau sing tinemu ing kaanan sing jangkep. Pteranodon iku sawijining reptil nanging ora kalebu jinis dinosaurus.[2] Definisine, kabèh dinosaurus kebagi ing kelompok Saurichia lan Ornithischia,kajaba Pterosaurus.[3] Nanging, sanajan kaya mangkono, Pteranodon iku tansah kapacak ing buku-buku dinosaurus lan wis kaloka ing khalayak umum minangka dinosaurus.[3]

Dheskripsi

Spesies Pteranodon kanthi cara apik dijelasake ing cathetan panemuan fosil, kalebu kanggo dheskripsi anatomi awake sing paling ditel lan analisis kauripane.[2] Luwih saka 1000 spésimèn sing wis diidhentifikasi,punjul setengahe wis cukup akèh ngekei informasi kanggo nggambaraké anatomi kéwan iki.[2] Malah, panemuan iki karan-sebut minangka material fosil sing paling dingerteni saka jinis pterosaurus liyané.[2]

Pteranodon iku reptil mabur (pterosaurus) sing gedhé dhéwé saka kéwan mabur liyané.[4] Sawetara 6 kaki (1,8 m) dawane, duwé swiwi sing ambané 25-33 kaki (7,8-10 m),abote sawatara 35 pon, dhuwure nalika ngadheg yiku sawatara 6 kaki (1,8 m).[2] Swiwine iku diakoni minangka swiwi sing paling dawa sing dingerteni.[2] Pteranodon duwé balung sing gerong kopong,duwé awak cilik lan ora duwé buntut.[2]

Jantan diwasa Pteranodon iku dianggep reptil ambur paling amba sing dingerteni nganti pterosaurus azhdarchid gedhé tinemu ing akir abad 20-an.[2] Amba epek-epek swiwine Pteranodon lanang diwasa iku 5,6 m.[2] pteranodon wadon Dhewasane luwih cilik ukurane,kira-kira 3,8 m nalika ngepek.[2] Spesimen Pteranodon longiceps sing paling amba sing asalé saka Formasi Niobrara diukur 6,25 m saka pucuk swiwi nganti pucuk swiwine manèh.[2] Spesimen sing swiwine paling amba manèh dingerteni saka Wujud Pierre Shale, kanthi rentangan 7,25 m, sing dianggep duwéke salah sijining génus lan spésies Geosternbergia maysei sing wis cures.[5]
