Fossils belonging to the Dragon of Death - found in Argentina - date back 86 million years.
Fossilized remains from a giant flying reptile the size of a bus have been discovered in Argentina.
"This species had a height similar to that of a giraffe," project leader Leonardo Ortiz said, with a wingspan that "defies the limits of our biological understanding". Prof Ortiz was one of the palaeontologists who originally discovered the reptile's fossils during an excavation in Argentina back in 2012.
"It seemed appropriate to name it that way," Prof Ortiz said in an earlier interview. "It's the dragon of death."Palaeontologist Leonardo Ortiz beside a life-size replica of the newly discovered species
