Pteradactylus was a flying reptile with a wingspan of about five feet. It had long, narrow jaws with about 90 narrow, conical teeth, and a very small, curved beak at the end of the jaws. It had a long neck covered in hair-like fibers that are called pycnofibers. It had a muscular wing membrane that stretched from its arm and fourth finger to its ankle; the other three fingers made a sort of "hand" that it used for walking (they were quadrupeds) or for climbing. They had short hind legs and a short tail, and a membrane stretched from each side of the tail to the leg on that side.
