Liaoxipterus

''Liaoxipterus'' is a genus of pterodactyloid pterosaur from the Barremian-Aptian-age Lower Cretaceous Jiufotang Formation of Chaoyang, Liaoning, China. The type species is ''Liaoxipterus brachyognathus''. The genus name is derived from the discovery locality Liaoxi and a Latinised Greek ''pteron'', "wing". The specific name is derived from Greek ''brachys'', "short" and ''gnathos'', "jaw".
==Description==
The genus is based on holotype CAR-0018, an almost complete but crushed 161 millimetres long mandible (fused lower jaws), which differs from that of all known other ctenochasmatids in its short teeth and low tooth count (eleven per side). Also a detached hyoid is present.〔Dong, Z., and Lü, J. (2005). A New Ctenochasmatid Pterosaur from the Early Cretaceous of Liaoning Province. ''Acta Geologica Sinica'' 79(2):164-167.〕
The jaw of ''Liaoxipterus'' had a rounded top filled with small, peg-like teeth. The shape of the teeth, and the anatomy of the ''hyoid'' (a bone that anchors the tongue muscles), suggest that it was an insect eater, and may even have had the capability to protrudes tongue in a manner similar to chameleons in order to catch insects.
