  • New fossil material of Tethydraco regalis is described from the Maastrichtian deposits of the Ouled Abdoun Basin (Morocco) by Labita & Martill (2020), who consider it more likely that T. regalis was an azhdarchid rather than a pteranodontian.[376]
  • New specimens of edentulous pterosaur jaw fragments are described from the Cambridge Greensand (eastern England, United Kingdom) by Smith et al. (2020), who also revise the fossil material of Ornithostoma sedgwicki and assign this taxon to the group Azhdarchoidea rather than to the family Pteranodontidae.[377]

  • A study on the anatomy, locomotion and phylogenetic relationships of Scleromochlus taylori is published by Bennett (2020).[391]
  • An Otischalkian assemblage of lagerpetid and silesaurid fossils, including lagerpetid material of unusually large size assignable to Dromomeron, is described from the Los Esteros Member of the Santa Rosa Formation (New Mexico, United States) by Beyl, Nesbitt & Stocker (2020), who interpret this finding as evidence that lagerpetids achieved large body size earlier than previously recognized.[392]
  • A study on the phylogenetic relationships of lagerpetids is published by Ezcurra et al. (2020), who interpret lagerpetids as the sister group of pterosaurs.[393]
  • New dinosauromorph fossil material is described from the Upper Triassic Chinle Formation (Petrified Forest National Park, Arizona, United States) by Marsh & Parker (2020), who also review the global fossil record of Late Triassic dinosauromorphs.[394]
  • A study on the musculoskeletal apparatus and posture of Silesaurus opolensis, evaluating its implications for the knowledge of the evolution of the fully erect limb posture in archosaurs, is published by Piechowski & Tałanda (2020).[395]
