Osteology, relationships and functional morphology of Weigeltisaurus jaekeli (Diapsida, Weigeltisauridae) based on a complete skeleton from the Upper Permian Kupferschiefer of Germany - https://peerj.com/articles/11413/


 Weigeltisaurus jaekeli likely used its wide, winglike membranes to glide from branch to branch in the late-Permian forest. Paleontologists reconstructed the reptile’s anatomy in this drawing to illustrate its skeleton’s proportions. Pritchard et al. 2021
