Here,we describe a well-preserved right proximal femur of a pterodactyloid pterosaur from the Kimmeridgian, Upper JurassicPraia da Amoreira–Porto Novo Formation of Peniche, Portugal. It is noteworthy for its relatively large size, compared toother Jurassic pterosaurs. It shows affinities with dsungaripteroids based on a combination of features including the bowingof the shaft, the mushroom-like cap of the femoral head, and the distinctly elevated greater trochanter. The femur hasa relatively thinner bone wall compared to dsungaripterids, and is more similar to basal dsungaripteroids. A histologicalanalysis of the bone cortex shows it had reached skeletal maturity. The preserved last growth period indicates fast, uninterruptedgrowth continued until the final asymptotic size was reached, a growth pattern which could best be comparedto pterodactyloid femora from the Early Cretaceous. The specimen is the second confirmed report of a dsungaripteroidfrom the Jurassic, and it is the first record of this group from the Iberian PeninsulaAbertoUNIVERSIDADE ESTADUAL DE CAMPINASAureliano Neto, Tito, 1989-2021info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12733/11943AURELIANO NETO, Tito.
