About Mythunga
Mythunga is a potentially dubious genus of anhanguerid pterosaur known from the late Early Cretaceous (Albian age) Toolebuc Formation of Australia. The genus contains a single species, Mythunga camara, known from a partial skull. It is a close relative of Ferrodraco, another Australian anhanguerid.
