🦖 Daily Paleo 🦖; Aerotitan sudamericanus
From Late Cretaceous Argentina, the "south american air titan" is perhaps not titanic enough with an "only" 5 meter wingspan. It's the first azhdarchid found in its continent and is known from an upper jaw fragment

The last of the 3 main dinosaurs for my "Frozen Phantoms" fanfic. The plot is now sketched out, I just need to write it, lol
Changyuraptor is underrated, so I'm giving it some spotlight. I liked the idea of the smallest dinosaur having the most aura. Inspirations listed below
