There are over 135 known genera of pterosaurs, and each genus has at least one species. Each species would have been a different size, so I can't tell you the lengths of all pterosaurs. Pterodactylus, a relatively small pterosaur, was probably 3 to 5 feet long, while Quetzalcoatlus, the largest well known pterosaur, was about 25 feet long.

Good dino fact on pterosaurs?
Pterosaurs were carnovores. They ate fish. they were also predators not prey.FOR FEATURES WHEN THE PTEROSAURS LIVED The primitive types of pterosaurs appeared during the Triassic period , and died out at the end of the Jurassic period. More advanced pterosaurs appeared late in the Jurassic period and died out during the Cretaceous period. SIZE Their wingspam is 12metres long. The head is 1 metre long.The body is 3 metres long.
Does pterosaurs eat humans?
No. Pterosaurs are extinct and humans never met the dinosaurs/pterosaurs.
Do pterosaurs fly?
Yes, pterosaurs were flying creatures.
What is a pterosaurs main method of defence?
Pterosaurs weren't built for self defense. However, they could easily fly away from most threats as long as they weren't taken by complete surprise.
Were there any hyper-carnivorous Pterosaurs?
All known pterosaurs were carnivores. There is no evidence that any pterosaurs ate any plants at all, and thus it is safe to say that at least most, if not all pterosaurs were hypercarnivorous.
Can pterosaurs roar?
no
Was a Pterosaur a type of flying reptile?
The only known reptiles to have evolved powered flight were pterosaurs. Thus, all pterosaurs were flying reptiles and all flying reptiles are pterosaurs.
What is the closest living animal to the pterodactyl?
If you looked at the wings and the short tail, Pterodactylus looked a fair amount like a bat. In fact, parts of the Pterodactylus were covered in hair-like pycnofibers, and both pterosaurs and bats walk on all fours. However, Pterodactylus had a long neck, long, narrow jaws, and even a throat pouch, more similar to birds like pelicans.
What is the pterodactyl evolution?
Pterodactylus was a pterosaur, and pterosaurs were archosaurs. All pterosaurs died out 65.5 million years ago. Other types of archosaurs include crocodillians, the dinosaurs, and the birds, which evolved from dinosaurs. The pterosaurs were more closely related to the dinosaurs than they were to crocodillians, so the closest living relatives of pterosaurs are the birds. All birds are equally related to pterosaurs.
What animals were pterosaurs?
They are pterodactyls.
Are pterosaurs related to dinosaurs?
Yes. Dinosaurs and pterosaurs were both archosaurs, a branch that also include crocodilians.
What other modern day species are the pterodactyl's related to?
Pterodactylus was a pterosaur, and pterosaurs were archosaurs. All pterosaurs died out 65.5 million years ago. Other types of archosaurs include crocodillians, the dinosaurs, and the birds, which evolved from dinosaurs. The pterosaurs were more closely related to the dinosaurs than they were to crocodillians, so the closest living relatives of pterosaurs are the birds. All birds are equally related to pterosaurs.
