Most Pterodactylus fossils have been found in the Solnhofen limestone of Bavaria, in Germany. A few fragmentary remains of Pterodactylus have been found in other parts of Europe as well as Africa.

Pterodactylus is best known from fossils found in the Solnhofen limestone of Bavaria, Germany. Other fossils have been found throughout Europe and in parts of Africa. Thus, they probably lived throughout Europe and in parts of Africa between 150.8 and 148.5 million years ago.

The islands were somewhat dry and had forests of the plants that existed at that time, such as conifers, cycads, ferns, horsetails, and ginkgoes.
