There were hundreds or thousands of different species of pterosaurs, and different types lived in different places at different times. Thus, some types of pterosaurs would have existed in each type of habitat that existed at that time. Some environments would have included deserts, coastal floodplains, swamps, and somewhat dry woodlands.

Where have fossils of pterosaurs been found?

Pterosaur fossils have been found on all continents with the possible exception of Antarctica, but that doesn't mean that pterosaurs didn't live in Antarctica. Because they could fly, were warm blooded, and existed for 145 million years, various species adapted to live in different parts of the world, and pterosaurs probably lived on all continents in all climates.


Were there any hyper-carnivorous Pterosaurs?

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.
