==Discovery and naming== thumb|left|Diagram of known remains In December of 2009, fossil collector Steve Etches discovered the partial skull of a pterosaur in Kimmeridge Bay on the Isle of Purbeck peninsula of Dorset, England. Part of the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site, the rocks of this area are the heart of the Kimmeridge Clay, a Late Jurassic fossil-bearing deposit. As pterosaur remains are rare in the UK, the skull was considered an important discovery. It was collected in the Museum of Jurassic Marine Life as specimen number MJML 1918, and was later put on display there.
