Pteranodon
''Pteranodon'' (; from and ) is a genus of pterosaur that included some of the largest known flying reptiles, with ''P. longiceps'' having a wingspan of over . They lived during the late Cretaceous geological period of North America in present-day Kansas, Nebraska, Wyoming, South Dakota and Alabama. More fossil specimens of ''Pteranodon'' have been found than any other pterosaur, with about 1,200 specimens known to science, many of them well preserved with nearly complete skulls and articulated skeletons. It was an important part of the animal community in the Western Interior Seaway. When the first fossils of ''Pteranodon'' were found, they were assigned to toothed pterosaur genera, ''Ornithocheirus'' and ''Pterodactylus''. In 1876, Othniel Charles Marsh recognised it as a genus of its own, making particular note of its complete lack of teeth, which at the time was unique among pterosaurs. Over the decades, multiple species would be assigned to ''Pteranodon'', though today, o ...

Pterodon (mammal)
''Pterodon'' (Ancient Greek: (wing) + (tooth) meaning "wing tooth") is an extinct genus of hyaenodont in the family Hyainailouridae, containing two species. The type species ''Pterodon dasyuroides'' is known exclusively from the late Eocene to the earliest Oligocene of western Europe. The genus was first erected by the French zoologist Henri Marie Ducrotay de Blainville in 1839, who said that Georges Cuvier presented one of its fossils to a conference in 1828 but died before he could make a formal description of it. It was the second hyaenodont genus with taxonomic validity after ''Hyaenodon'', but this resulted in taxonomic confusion over the validities of the two genera by other taxonomists. Although the taxonomic status of ''Pterodon'' was revised during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, it became a wastebasket taxon for other hyaenodont species found in Africa and Asia. Today, only the type species is recognized as belonging to the genus while just one is pending reass ...

Pterodon (plant)
''Pterodon'' is a genus of flowering plants in the legume family, Fabaceae. It includes four species of trees native to Brazil and Bolivia. Typical habitats include seasonally-dry tropical forest, woodland (cerrado), and thorn shrubland (caatinga), often on rocky outcrops. It belongs to the subfamily Faboideae. ''Pterodon'' can be distinguished from other members of the Dipterygeae as follows: the leaf rachis is exalate, the fruit is a cryptosamara with oil glands in the epicarp, the seed testa is smooth and the raphe is apparent, with the hilum in a lateral position covered by an aril and a smooth embryo.
