T. imperator skull model. Beginning in 2006, several researchers, including Kellner and Campos (who named Tupandactylus), had found that the three species traditionally assigned to the genus Tapejara (T. wellnhofferi, T. imperator, and T. navigans) are in fact distinct both in anatomy and in their relationships to other tapejarid pterosaurs, and thus needed to be given new generic names.
Tapejaridae (from a Tupi word meaning "the lord of the ways") is a family of azhdarchoid pterosaurs from the Cretaceous period.Members are currently known from Brazil, England, Hungary, Morocco, [1] Spain, [2] the United States, [3] and China.

Tapejaroidea (or tapejaroids) is a group of pterosaurs belonging to the clade Ornithocheiroidea.Tapejaroids lived from the Early to Late Cretaceous periods, with one possible member, Tendaguripterus, extending the fossil range to the Late Jurassic period. [1]
The generic name combines the names of Europe and the related genus Tapejara, in reference to the fact that Europejara is the first tapejarid found in that continent. The specific name refers to the Olcades, the Celtiberic tribe inhabiting the region of Cuenca, the location of the find, in Antiquity. [1]
The generic name combines references to Africa and the related genus Tapejara. The specific name honours the Moroccan paleontologist Samir Zouhri. [1] The holotype, FSAC-KK 5004, had been found in the Kem-Kem Beds, dating from the Albian - early Cenomanian. It consists of a snout lacking the front tip and extending to behind to a position below ...
Caiuajara was assigned to the Tapejaridae, more precisely the Tapejarinae.It shares several traits with the tapejarids, such as a crest running from the front snout to the back of the head; an elongated nasoantorbital fenestra occupying over 40% of total skull length; and a large boss on the front edge of the coracoid.
