Tooth replacement of the filter-feeding pterosaur Forfexopterus and its implications for ecological adaptation by CHANG-FU ZHOU, FENGMIN FAN

“…Abstract A “comb-dentition”, characterized by long, needle-like, and closely-spaced teeth, is found in the ctenochasmatid pterosaurs as an adaptation for filter-feeding. However, little is known about their tooth replacement pattern, hindering our understanding of the development of the filter-feeding apparatus of the clade. …”
