The tapjara (pronounced: TAP-ah-JAR-ah) was a type of marine pterosaur that was also known as a flying reptile. It existed in the early Cretaceous period about 132 to 100 million years ago.
The first fossil find was Northeast Brazil. From the skeletal remains, the tapejara had a body that measures around 1 meter long, a wing span of up to 5 meters, and a short tail. The head measured up to 30 cm with a remarkable head crest up to a meter tall formed by skin stretching between two bony crests on its head, one above the nostrils and the other behind and above the eyes. It was estimated that an adult tapejara would have a body weight of around 50 kilograms.
This flying reptile was a carnivore that ate mainly fish and carrion because it mostly reside beside the sea shore. This was advantaged by having an end jaw that is directly downwards at the front, like a bird’s beak making it easy to catch its prey.
