ブラムウェルとウィットフィールドは、このテーマに関する研究が長期間中断された後、プテラノドンの飛行の生体力学を再検討した。彼らは、翼幅が 7 m のプテラノドンの質量は約 16 kg であると推定した。そのようなプテラノドンが空中にとどまるには、少なくとも 6.7 m/s の速度で飛行する必要があり、これは「極めて低い」最低速度とみなされている。[ 99 ]このような負荷であれば、「穏やかに」離陸または着陸できたであろう。ブラムウェルとウィットフィールドは、生体力学によってプテラノドンは白亜紀後期の進行に伴う気候変動による風速の増加に対して脆弱であった可能性があり、これが属の絶滅の原因であった可能性さえ暫定的に示唆した。[ 100 ]
Habib published a study examining how pterosaurs took flight. He concluded that pterosaur take-off occurred on all fours using the strength of their well-developed wing and chest muscles to launch into the air.[186]
Witton and Naish argued that azhdarchid pterosaurs spent much of their lives on the ground browsing for prey.[162]
Kellner and others published a study on the wing membranes of Jeholopterus.[17] This study helped advance paleontologists' understanding of actinofibrils and the pycnofibres composing pterosaurs "furry" covering.[133]
Gao and others reported the discovery of pterosaur fossils in North Korea.[17]
Claessens and others published a study examining the "thin-walled and pneumatic" nature of pterosaur bones.[133]
Butler and others published a study examining the "thin-walled and pneumatic" nature of pterosaur bones.[133]
Mazin and others reported the first trace fossil produced by a pterosaur as it landed.[162]
Dyke and others published compared the anatomy of pterosaur wings with those of other flying animals to better understand their ecomorphology.[162]
Lü and others described the new genus and species Darwinopterus modularis.[194] According to David Hone, D. modularis was the single most influential pterosaur species on science's understanding of pterosaur evolution. The body of Darwinopterus resembled the more primitive long-tailed "rhamphorynchoids", while its skull resembled those of the more advanced short-tailed pterodactyloids.[14] These traits establish the species as an important transitional form, documenting one of the most important phases of pterosaur evolution.[15] In this paper they also attempted to reconstruct the evolutionary history of pterosaurs.[157]
Bonaparte, Schultz, and Soares described the new genus and species Faxinalipterus minima.[197] This species may represent the earliest known pterosaur.[16]
Wang and others described the new genus and species Kunpengopterus sinensis.[195] They also formally defined the new family Wukongopteridae. This taxon is considered one of the most important higher-order pterosaur taxa to be described in recent times due to its intermediate nature between the "rhamphorhynchoids" and pterodactyloids.[17]
Tischlinger published a study on pterosaur wing membranes.[17] This study utilized UV light to help reveal greater detail in the specimen than is visible to the unaided eye.[133]
Steel reported the presence of a possible wukongopterid in Middle Jurassic rocks in the United Kingdom.[17]
Nesbitt and Hone found primitive pterosaurs to have a mandibular fenestra, a trait linking them to the archosaurs.[124] They also observed that many of the traits suggested by Bennett to be at odds with archosaurian origins were found in many groups and therefore not evidence for an interpretation of pterosaurs and a distinct non-archosaurian lineage.[202]
Vidovic published a study on the histology of pterosaur teeth.[133]
Henderson published estimates of the body mass of various pterosaurs.[148]
Witton and Habib noted that pterosaurs' reliance on launching with the wings from all fours to take flight limited their maximum body size and "had important implications for their ecology".[186]
Tutken and Hone attempted to ascertain the diet of pterosaurs by studying the isotopic composition of their bones and teeth.[162]
This year the Flugsaurier conference was held in Beijing.[69]
The Royal Society put on an exhibition related to pterosaurs as part of its 200th anniversary celebration.[69]
Documentary dedicated to pterosaurs titled Flying Monsters was released. This film would go on to win the BAFTA Award.[69]
Lu and others reported the discovery of a Darwinopterus egg associated with its mother. This was the fourth known discovery of a pterosaur egg.[17]
O'Connor and others reported the discovery of pterosaur fossils in Kenya.[17]
Nesbitt published a thorough cladistic analysis of the archosaurs, finding pterosaurs not only to be a member, but very close relatives of the dinosaurs.[16]
Palmer published a study of pterosaur flight biomechanics that utilized a wind tunnel.[148]
Prondvai and Osi published a study on pterosaur skull biomechanics.[162]
Hone and others described the new genus and species Bellubrunnus rothgaengeri.[212] This was the first known pterosaur with forward-pointing wingtips.[17]
Redescription of the holotype specimen of Mythunga camara was published by Pentland & Poropat (2019).[250]
A study on intervertebral foramina in Vectidraco, Anhanguera and Coloborhynchus, and on their implications for inferring palaeoecology and locomotion of these pterosaurs, is published by Martin‐Silverstone, Sykes & Naish (2019).[251]
Redscription of the holotype specimen of Ferrodraco, particularly the post-cranial skeleton, was published by Pentland and others. This study suggests that the diversity of Australian pterosaur fauna has been greatly underestimated.[262]
