OverviewPlease note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Faxinalipterus is a genus of pterosaur from the Late Triassic Caturrita Formation of southern Brazil. The type species, Faxinalipterus minima was named and described in 2010 by Jose Fernando Bonaparte, Marina Bento Soares and Cesar Leandro Schultz. The generic name is derived from Faxinal do Soturno and a Latinised Greek pteron, wing . The specific name, from Latin minimus, means smallest . Fossils of the species have in 2002 and 2005 been found at a site 1.5 kilometres northeast of Faxinal do Sotorno, Rio Grande do Sul, from the Caturrita Formation dating from the Carnian-Norian, 220 - 215 million years old. The holotype, UFRGS PV0927T, is part of the collection of the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul and consists of several, partially fragmentary, limb elements, perhaps of a single individual. These do not include bones from the hand. A upper jaw fragment, a left maxilla with three teeth, has been referred to the species.
