#pterosaurs were flying reptiles, whose ancestors taxonomically split from what would become #dinosaurs around the start of the #Triassic period. Pterosaurs were the first non-insect animals to evolve powered flight.

In our Pterosaur case you can see wing bones which were found in Stonesfield, just a few km from the #museum. There is also a wonderfully preserved Pterosaur claw from #oxford in a case just to the left of the African elephant. Let us know if you find them. Happy #fossil hunting!
