Novialoidea (meaning "new wings") is an

macronychopteran pterosaurs that lived from the latest Early Jurassic to the latest Late Cretaceous (early Toarcian to late Maastrichtian age[3]), their fossils having been found on all continents except Antarctica.[4]

History and classification

Novialoidea was named by paleontologist

synapomorphies that the members of the clade possess.[5]

Paleontologist

Pterosauria (Andres, 2010).[8]

Below is a cladogram showing the

phylogenetic analysis conducted by Brian Andres and colleagues in 2014. Based on the analysis, Novialoidea contains the genus Campylognathoides as well as the group Breviquartossa.[9]
