Lonchodraco (?) sp.
Lonchodectes sp. : Averianov and Kurochkin 2010: fig. 1.
Material. PIN 5028/4, an anterior fragment of mandibular symphysis; Melovatka 3 locality, Volgograd Region, Russia; Melovatka Formation (Cenomanian).
Comments. This specimen resembles L. giganteus in having similar tooth spacing (5.6 teeth per 3 mm) and a low mandibular crest at the anterior end of the mandibular symphysis but differs in a pointed anterior end of the mandible (rounded in L. giganteus ). Also, it lacks the odontoid process, present in L. giganteus .
