Description: Rhamphorhynchus muensteri is a species of long-tailed Pterosaur from the Late Jurassic, with fossils found most commonly in the Solnhofen limestone of Bavaria, Germany. Their life appearence was well known due to fossils of well-preserved soft tissues such as wing membranes and tail vanes. Their interlocking teeth is indicative of a fish-eating diet. The shape of their tail vane changed throughout their life, young individuals had small diamond-shaped vanes and the largest had triangular shaped vanes. The largest known individual had a wingspan of 1.8m, but even the smallest known individual with a wingspan of 29cm is thought to have been capable of flight.
