 This specimen supposedly represented a member of the family Ctenochasmatidae, though further examination suggested it belonged to a teleosaurid stem-crocodilian instead of a pterosaur.Most ctenochasmatoids were aquatic or semi-aquatic pterosaurs, possessing large webbed hindfeet and long torsos - both adaptations for swimming and floating -, as well as a predominant occurrence in aquatic environments, the exception being the more slender-limbed and short-torsoed gallodactylids.They occupied a wide variety of ecological niches, from generalistic carnivores like "Pterodactylus" to filter-feeders like "Pterodaustro" and possible molluscivores like "Cycnorhamphus".
