The Evolution of the Antorbital Cavity of Archosaurs: A Study in Soft-Tissue Reconstruction in the Fossil Record with an Analysis of the Function of Pneumaticity
TL;DR: Resolution of the antorbital cavity is correctly viewed as a “soft-tissue problem,” and is addressed within the context of the extant phylogenetic bracket (EPB) approach for reconstructing the unpreserved features of fossil organisms.

On the phylogeny and evolutionary history of pterosaurs
TL;DR: The pattern of pterosaur evolution suggested by the results of this analysis is broadly similar to traditional ideas, but has greater resolution, more complexity and reveals several previously unrecognized ‘events’.

Pterosaur phylogeny and comments on the evolutionary history of the group
TL;DR: This study suggests that the most primitive taxon is the Anurognathidae, followed by Sordes and all remaining pterosaurs, and the hypothesis of rhamphorhynchoid paraphyly is confirmed, with the RhamphorHynchidae more closely related to the Pterodactyloidea than to more basal forms.

The age of the Cretaceous Santana Formation fossil Konservat Lagerstätte of north-east Brazil: a historical review and an appraisal of the biochronostratigraphic utility of its palaeobiota
TL;DR: In the case of the Romualdo Member of the Santana Formation Konservat Lagerstatten of north-east Brazil, it was first dated as Cretaceous by Agassiz on the basis of fish fossils obtained by Bavarian explorers Spix and Martius between 1817 and 1820 as discussed by the authors.

New specimens of Pterosauria (Reptilia) with soft parts with implications for pterosaurian anatomy and locomotion
TL;DR: In this paper, new specimens of pterosaurs with soft-part preservation from the Solnhofen Lithographic Limestone (S Germany) and the Crato Formation (northeastern Brazil) yield hitherto unknown and unexpected details of Pterosaur anatomy.
