# Geosternbergia sternbergi

*Geosternbergia* is a genus of pterosaur from the **Late Cretaceous** period, with fossils discovered in what is now **Kansas, United States**, within the ancient Western Interior Seaway.
Formerly classified as a species of *Pteranodon*, it was reclassified as its own genus based on distinctive cranial features, most notably the dramatic difference in crest shape and size between males and females.
It was a large, toothless pterosaur that soared over open water, swooping down to catch fish near the surface.

---

## Appearance
- Large pterosaur with broad, pointed wings, a long toothless beak, and strong clawed feet
- Warm golden-tan to olive colouring across the body, wings, and limbs, with darker brown-black wingtips
- Displays strong sexual dimorphism in both size and colouration:
- **Males** are significantly larger, with a prominent bright red crest on top of the head, vivid red and black facial colouring with speckled red markings around the beak, and a striking black and white striped pattern on the underwings
- **Females** are smaller, with a blue-grey head and neck, a lighter grey-white throat and chest, a subtle white stripe along the underwing, and a yellowish-green eye
- In-game size: **1 block long, 1 block tall** (Female) | **2 blocks long, 2 blocks tall** (Male)

---

## Behavior
- **Passive**: Does not attack players or other creatures unprovoked
- Likely roosts on cliffs or coastlines and takes to the air to hunt fish over open water

---

1. Enable [Experimental Features]($references/experimental)
2. Find ![](@jurassic-saga:textures/item/natural/entity/animal/[PATH]/geosternbergia_fossil_remains) [**Geosternbergia Remains**](@jurassic-saga:fossil) or fossils
3. Use the fossil revival process to create a Geosternbergia
4. Hatch from an **Alligator Egg** type egg
