The galerie des Batailles

One of the salles des Croisades

The Musée de l'Histoire de France (Museum of French History) is a museum that was created by King Louis Philippe I in the Palace of Versailles and opened in 1837. At the time, it represented an ambitious project of national reconciliation between the hitherto competing narratives of the French monarchy and the French Revolution, to which Louis-Philippe devoted significant personal attention. Whereas it gradually faded in importance as a museum in the later 19th century, its lavish historicist decoration remains a major exemplar of the art of France's July Monarchy.

History

The museum was dedicated "to all France's glories" in a spirit of national reconciliation

When Louis-Philippe became king in 1830 following the July Revolution, the Palace of Versailles had been mostly unoccupied for more than 40 years and had fallen into disrepair. Louis-Philippe, who had a personal interest in history, decided in 1833 to repurpose the massive building for a non-residential use.Marthe Camille Bachasson, Count of Montalivet was instrumental in the development of the museum project.

A number of new rooms and galleries were created by restructuring the palace's interior spaces and destroying a number of pre-existing apartments. The design was coordinated by architect Frédéric NepveuPierre Fontaine for the concept of zenithal lighting of the Galerie des Batailles.

Victor Hugo, who attended the inauguration, was appreciative of the project in his personal notes:

What King Louis-Philippe has done in Versailles is good. By completing this work he has been a great king and an impartial philosopher, made a national monument from a monarchical one, put an immense idea in a gigantic edifice; installed the present in the past, 1789 face-to-face with 1688, the Emperor in the royal house, Napoleon in Louis XIV's home; in sum, bound that magnificent book known as French history into this magnificent binding known as Versailles.

Further work was carried out to expand the museum under the Second French Empire in the 1850s and 1860sThird Republic. In the late 19th century, however, Versailles curator Pierre de Nolhac put emphasis on the restoration of the pre-revolutionary state of the palace, and dismantled some of the museum's arrangements.

The museum's rooms and collection are now managed by the Public Establishment of the Palace, Museum and National Estate of Versailles together with the rest of the palace and domains. Most of the corresponding galleries and exhibition spaces are not permanently open to the public.

* the monumental galerie des Batailles, occupying most of the South Wing's first floor on the garden (West) side, with 36 large-scale historical paintings and 82 busts of French military leaders who died in battle;
  * the five salles des Croisades, opened in 1843 in the middle section of the North Wing's ground floor, celebrating the crusades as a specifically French endeavour (including Eugène Delacroix's Entry of the Crusaders in Constantinople, transferred to the Louvre in 1885 and replaced by a copy);
  * the salle de 1792 connecting to the South Wing on the first floor, sole surviving one of several rooms dedicated to the French Revolution;
  * the Consulate and Empire Rooms on the South Wing's ground floor below the galerie des Batailles, on Napoleon and his military victories;
  * the salle de 1830 to the South of the galerie des Batailles, commemorating the July Revolution;
  * the galleries of Africa, Crimea and Italy on the North Wing's first floor above the salles des Croisades, glorifying the French involvement under Louis-Philippe in the conquest of Algeria, the siege of Antwerp (1832) and the "Pastry War" with Mexico, as well as the later Second Empire's campaigns in the Crimean War and the Second Italian War of Independence;
  * the galeries de pierre, four long corridors (on the ground floor and first floor, in the palace's North and South wings) decorated with numerous sculptures of French historical figures.

With over 6,000 paintings and 3,000 sculptures, the museum's collections are the premier source of iconography on French history.

Iyo ang Tondo, Kanya ang Cavite

Iyo ang Tondo, Kanya ang Cavite (lit. 'Tondo Is Yours, Cavite Is His') is a 1986 Filipino action film directed by Pablo SantiagoFernando Poe Jr. and Ramon Revilla.

The film earned less at the box office than what its producers anticipated, with industry observers assuming that GMA Network's television broadcasts of past Poe films had likely drawn audiences away from watching Poe's new films in cinemas.

Plot

Crisanto (Fernando Poe Jr.) is a valiant man from the streets of Tondo beloved by its people for his acts of vigilantism and his Robin Hood-like generosity to its poor. Bador (Ramon Revilla), on the other hand, is an influential man in Cavite's underworld whose tight grip is recognized in the entire province. Crisanto and Bador are good friends dating back to their incarceration at the New Bilibid Prison.

Their friendship will be put to the ultimate test as the Kingpin of Tondo is pitted against his staunch ally, the Don of the Cavite gangland, by a cabal of men from both Tondo and Cavite eager to oust both from their respective thrones. Now the best of friends become the worst of enemies as Tondo collides with Cavite.

Release

The BSH Films-produced film was released on January 30, 1986

Box office

The film earned less at the box office than what its producers expected. Observers of the film business suggested that it is likely due to GMA Network having started to broadcast Poe's past films through the television program FPJ sa GMA, which may have drawn audiences away from watching Poe's new films in cinemas. Another reason given was Poe's politics: Poe supported the reelection of President Ferdinand Marcos in the 1986 snap elections, which may have affected his popularity among his viewers.

Restored version

The film was restored in high definition by FPJ Productions. The restored version was premiered on ABS-CBN on June 9, 2019.

Aborted remake

Persiculinae

Persiculinae is a taxonomic subfamily of minute to small predatory sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks. This subfamily includes several species which are micromollusks.

Taxonomy

The subfamily is sometimes placed in the family Cystiscidae, and is sometimes instead left in the family Marginellidae the margin snails. It is within the clade Neogastropoda.

(Note: Gastropod taxonomy has been in flux for more than half a century, and this is especially true currently, because of new research in molecular phylogeny. Because of all the ongoing changes, different reliable sources can yield very different classifications.)

In 2019 this subfamily has been classified as a synonym of the subfamily Cystiscinae Stimpson, 1865

Shell description

The shell minute to large, white, uniformly colored, or patterned; spire immersed or low to tall; lip thickened, smooth or lirate; external varix present or absent; siphonal notch present or absent; weak to distinct posterior notch present; columella multiplicate with combined total of 3 to 13 plications plus parietal lirae; internal whorls cystiscid type.

Description of soft parts

Animal with short to long tentacles, rarely absent; siphon short to long; eyes situated laterally on head slightly below the base of the tentacles; mantle usually not extending over external shell surface.

Internal anatomy

Odontophoral cartilages separate; valve of Leiblein present, with or without bypass tube; esophageal caecum absent; gland of Leiblein short, small, emptying directly into posterior end of esophagus; paired salivary glands ascinous or tubular, attached to esophagus just anterior to the valve of Leiblein, ducts attached to walls of esophagus; single accessory salivary gland present, ascinous or tubular, anal gland absent.

Kuwait at the Olympics

Kuwait has competed in 12 Summer Games. To date, Kuwait has won three bronze Olympic medals.

In the 1992 Barcelona Games, Kuwait received a bronze medal in the then-demonstration sport of taekwondo.double trap shooting, won by Fehaid Al-Deehani at the 2000 Olympics in Sydney. Their second was also a bronze won by Al-Deehani in the men's trap at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London. In 2016, Al-Deehani won the gold medal for men's double trap as an independent athlete, as the Kuwait Olympic Committee had been suspended by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) for the second time in five years due to governmental interference.

The National Olympic Committee for Kuwait was formed in 1957. It was recognized by the International Olympic Committee in 1966, but has been suspended twice in the past ten years.

Due to its most recent suspension, Kuwait was not allowed to compete as a sovereign state at the 2016 Summer Olympics, though the nation's participants were able to compete as Independent Olympic Athletes under the Olympic flag. At those games, Kuwaiti shooters Fehaid Al-Deehani and Abdullah Al-Rashidi won a gold medal and bronze medal respectively as independent athletes.

The Best Summer of My Life

Reception

Raquel Hernández Luján of HobbyConsolas gave the film 78 out of 100 points, considering it to be "a fresh and white comedy, tremendously well-intentioned", highlighting Leo Harlem's performance as well as the supporting cast while negatively assessing the overly "childish" and "dumbish" dramatic side.

Manuel J. Lombardo of Diario de Sevilla wrote that the film encapsulates the comedic performance of Leo Harlem within a bland format displaying a "shameful plot" and "shoddy forms" making "any complicity with the proposal literally impossible".

Pere Vall of Fotogramas gave the film 3 out of 5 stars, highlighting Leo Harlem's performance.

Toni Vall of Cinemanía gave the film 2 out of 5 stars, writing that despite being "well directed", the film was at the service of a "forgetful insubstantiality" and that it was particularly "innocuous".

The Musée de l'Assistance Publique – Hôpitaux de Paris (Museum of Public Assistance–Paris Hospitals) is a museum dedicated to the history of Parisian hospitals. It is located on the left bank of the Seine in the 5th arrondissement, at 47, quai de la Tournelle, Paris, France. The museum closed in 2012 and is evaluating reopening.

The nearest Paris Métro station is Maubert-Mutualité on Line 10.

The museum was housed in the Hôtel de Miramion, attributed to architect François Mansart, which was built as a private mansion for Christopher Martin in about 1630. The building became a Catholic school for girls from 1675 to 1794, then, during the First Empire, it was converted into the central pharmacy for hospitals in Paris, which operated from 1812 until 1974. The museum was established in 1934 by the municipal authority, Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris.

The museum contained a broad collection of nearly 10,000 objects related to the history of Parisian hospitals from the Middle Ages to the present day. Objects held include French and Flemish paintings, furniture from the 17th and 18th centuries, a major collection of pharmaceutical faiences, textiles, and medical instruments. About 8% of these items are presented in permanent exhibits, with rotating temporary exhibits that include loans from other museums. In 2002, an apothecary garden of 65 medicinal plants was created in the museum's courtyard.

Jasper Taylor

Jasper Taylor (January 1, 1894, Texarkana, Arkansas – November 7, 1964, Chicago) was an American jazz drummer.

Taylor performed in Wild West revues and minstrel shows in his teens, touring the American South and Mexico. He played in Memphis, Tennessee in 1913, on washboard, drums, wood blocks, and xylophone. As a xylophonist he collaborated with W.C. Handy, and later played with Jelly Roll Morton.

In 1917 he moved to Chicago, where he was based out of for most of his career. He played in the 365th Infantry Band in France during World War I, and played with Handy, Will Marion Cook, the Chicago Novelty Orchestra, and Clarence Williams in the late 1910s and early 1920s. Later in the 1920s he worked with Dave Peyton and Fess Williams.

Due to the downturn in opportunities to perform during the Great Depression, he quit music in the 1930s and became a cobbler. In the 1940s he returned to active performance with Freddie Shayne and others; in the 1950s he played for several years with Natty Dominique. Shortly before his death he led his own Creole Jazz Band.

Onkar Singh Kalkat

Major–General Onkar Singh Kalkat, PVSM, (1917 or 1918 – 3 December 2004) was an Indian military officer in the British Indian Army and later the Indian Army. Soon after the partition of India in 1947, he stumbled upon the plans for an Operation Gulmarg, which were apparently Pakistani plans to attack the princely state of Kashmir, two months before they were to commence. Even though he conveyed the information to the Indian authorities, he was not taken seriously. Senior Indian officials including the-then Defence Minister of India Sardar Baldev Singh, Brigadier Kalwant Singh and the DGMO, Col. P. N. Thapar, were complicit in the delay in taking action on Kalkat's information. Kalkat's account also shows the complicity of some British officials in the 1947 invasion of Kashmir.

Early life

Onkar Singh Kalkat was a postgraduate in economics from the University of Delhi.

Military career

He joined the British Indian Army at the age of 24 and studied at the Defence Services Staff College. He saw operations in both the Northeast India and Burma between 1938–45, and in Jammu and Kashmir in 1947 and then in 1971 when he was commander of the 14 Infantry, leading the recapture of 32 posts from the Pakistanis. He then worked first as an instructor and then as a Commandant at College of Combat, Mhow.Research and Analysis Wing (R&AW).

Pakistan's Invasion Plans

At the time of partition of India, Major Kalkat was the Brigade Major of the Bannu Frontier Brigade Group, in present-day Pakistan, under the Command of Brigadier C. P. Murry, a British officer;Operation Gulmarg, that was to commence in October.Frank Walter Messervy, and found attached the plans for Operation Gulmarg.


Onkar Singh Kalkat

Kalkat informed Brigadier Murry of the letter, who in turn told him to tell no one about the information in Pakistan as it could get him killed. However, soon afterwards, Kalkat was put under house arrest by the Pakistani Army suspecting that something was up. Kalkat escaped his captors, left Mir Ali Mirali, reached Ambala in Indian Punjab and, on 18 October 1947, headed to Delhi in a goods train. The following day he met senior military officials including Brigadier Kalwant Singh, Col. P. N. Thapar (then the Director of Military Operations) and Sardar Baldev Singh, the Defence Minister, and told them about what he knew of the impending attack. But no one took Major Kalkat seriously enough to take action and the "British-staffed intelligence directorate paid no heed to it".

Before leaving Pakistan, Major Kalkat, with the help of his Muslim friends and the District Commissioner of Mianwali district, had got his family out of Pakistan and sent to India.Prime Minister Nehru who shouted at everyone for not taking an officer in a responsible position seriously:

I was traced from Amritsar on 24 October 1947 and rushed to Delhi. The next day (25 October 1947) I was rushed to the presence of Pandit Nehru. He listened to me with rapt attention for fifteen minutes. He was most upset.... He blamed them for having remained impervious to my information. Nehru shouted that an officer in responsible position ought to have been trusted, and some action should have been taken on my initial report.

— Major–General Onkar Singh Kalkat (Retd), Far-flung Frontiers (page 37)

In 1983, Kalkat wrote a book called Far-flung Frontiers in which he described his experiences. The foreword of the book was written by Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw, then a Brigadier, who agreed with Kalkat's narrative.

Publications

First published in 1983, The Far-Flung Frontiers by Major-General O.S. Kalkat is said to be one of the most "significant" military autobiographies written in India "in terms of military value and the scope it covers".

Savanna-la-Mar

Great George Street

Manning's High School

Savanna-la-Mar (commonly known as Sav-la-Mar, or simply Sav) is the chief town and capital of Westmoreland Parish, Jamaica. A coastal town, it contains an 18th-century fort constructed for colonial defence against pirates in the Caribbean.

History

Savanna-la-Mar was originally established as a settlement in Spanish Jamaica.

In 1780, the town was completely destroyed by a powerful hurricane known as Savanna-la-Mar hurricane.

After Great Britain abolished slavery in 1833 and before the abolition of slavery in the United States in 1865, officials of the Caribbean colonies would sometimes order the examination of enslaved people that were held captive on American ships that came to its Caribbean ports. They were to choose between staying in the colony and working to gain their freedom, or remain captive on the ship sailing to the United States. In the cases of the Enterprise at Bermuda in 1835 and the Creole at Nassau in 1841–1842, a total of more than 200 enslaved people gained freedom (by means unknown).

In at least one case, residents intervened and put themselves at risk to help others gain freedom. On 20 July 1855, Jamaicans boarded the United States brig Young America, which had put into Savann-la-Mar. They had learned that the cook, a man named Anderson (alias Nettles) had escaped slavery and therefore was considered to be a fugitive. They took him to shore, where he managed to gain freedom. (He boarded the ship with free papers in the name of Nettles.) The Jamaican magistrates did not interfere. The United States consul, R. Monroe Harrison (1768–1858), complained to the British colonial government about the incident.The New York Times a few days later warning shipmasters against having blacks as part of their crew on ships putting into Jamaica, at the risk of losing them.

Sì (dessert)

Sì (𥻵)

Sì (pronounced [si˥˧], Min Dong Chinese: 𥻵, transcribed as sì in Foochow Romanized) is a traditional spherical dessert made from glutinous rice, eaten in celebration of the Winter Solstice festival in Fuzhou, Fujian Province, China. It is usually produced without filling, in contrast to the tangyuan. The sì is made by grinding glutinous rice into a powder, pressing the powder until almost dry, and then rolling the dry powder into a spherical shape, and finally adding fried (even burnt) soybean powder mixed with brown sugar onto the glutinous rice sphere.

The pronunciation of 𥻵 is the same as 時 (time, fortune) in Fuzhou dialect of Chinese. The "turn" in fortune is embodied in a well-known chengyu (simplified Chinese: 时来运转; traditional Chinese: 時來運轉; pinyin: shíláiyùnzhuǎn; lit. 'time comes, fortune turns'), often linked to the Winter Solstice, which in the Fuzhou dialect is pronounced the same as "[when] sì comes, fortune turns" (BUC: sì-lài-ông-diōng). As a result of these homophones, many Fuzhou people believe that eating sì may result in good fortune.

MAASP

Maximum Allowable Annulus Surface Pressure is an absolute upper limit for the pressure in the annulus of an oil and gas well as measured at the wellhead.

Background

Preserving well integrity is a vital task for the operators. This includes ensuring that the annuli remain intact. One major threat to annulus integrity is overpressure within the annulus, which could lead to burst or collapse of a casing or damage to the formation below. This will happen first at the shoe of the annulus because the pressure will naturally be higher with the weight of the column of brine. However, annuli usually only have pressure gauges at the wellhead. Therefore, a MAASP is calculated to provide a surface pressure, which will produce the limiting pressure at the shoe.

Determining a MAASP

There are four different ways an annulus may be overpressured: burst of the outside casing, collapse of the inside casing, fracturing of the formation at the shoe, overpressure of the surface equipment. Each of these produces its own limiting pressure at the shoe. The MAASP is taken as the most limiting of these.

The following example is for the 'B' annulus of a gas lifted well, filled with 1.2 sg brine from the shoe at 4070ftTVD (true vertical depth) to surface.

Burst of outside casing

In this well, the outside casing of the 'B' annulus is 13⅜" N80 grade with a weight of 68 lb⋅ft (92 N⋅m)−1. The burst pressure of this casing is 5020 psi. 1.2 sg brine produces a pressure gradient of 0.52 psi.ft−1 (see Well kill for the mathematical basics of hydrostatic heads). Therefore, the column of brine produces a pressure difference between top and bottom of 2116 psi. Therefore, the pressure at the wellhead can reach 2904 psi before 5020 psi is reached at the bottom. Therefore, the MAASP for casing burst is 2904 psi.

Collapse of inside casing


MAASP

Collapse of inside casing

The inside casing is 9⅝" L80 47 lb⋅ft (64 N⋅m)−1. The collapse pressure of this casing is 4750 psi. Therefore, pressure at the shoe of the 'B' annulus cannot exceed this. Given a hydrostatic head of 2116 psi, the pressure at the wellhead must not exceed 2634 psi.

Fracturing the formation

Geologists will have logged fracture pressures of the formation as the well was drilled. This can be used to provide a limiting pressure much as before. If the cement used to cement the casing in place is still intact, fracturing the formation is not a hazard.

Surface equipment

Wellheads usually have a pressure rating of 5000 psi, 10,000 psi or 15,000 psi. These are far in excess of the other limits.

Published MAASP

Collapse of the 9⅝" casing is clearly the limiting factor so the MAASP will be published as 2634 psi.

Rain-X

Rain-X is a synthetic hydrophobic surface-applied product that causes water to bead up and run off surfaces, most commonly used on glass automobile surfaces. The brand has since been extended to a range of automotive and surface care products, including wiper blades.

Products

The Rain-X brand includes seven categories of products: wiper blades, glass and windshield treatments, plastic cleaners, windshield washer fluid, car washes, car wax, and bug and tar washes.

Rain-X Online Protectant was introduced to commercial carwashes in 2005.

Competing products include Pittsburgh Glass Works' (formerly of PPG) Aquapel.

Uses

Effect of Rain-X original on a glass surface

Due to its general water-repellent properties, the original Rain-X formulation is used in a wide variety of consumer, commercial and industrial settings. The primary use of Rain-X is for automotive applications. Commercially sold "Original Glass Treatment" is the original and most well known Rain-X branded product. It is a hydrophobic silicone polymer3.5 or 7 US fluid ounces (100 or 210 ml), or as wipes or towelettes.

The original coating has also had use in military and other government settings. The Australian military examined the effect of application of Rain-X and similar products to submarine antennas to improve signal transmission, although other coatings had longer lifespans when submerged in salt water.

It is also occasionally used in laboratory settings to silanise a surface.

Ski and snowboard enthusiasts use Rain-X as "wax" to effectively overcome sticky wet snow common in spring conditions. While skiing or riding on mountains with hard snow pack, the heat of the sun changes snow conditions starting on the lower slopes. Skis may suddenly slow down, throwing one off-balance, because of a change in surface tension, a sort of "sandpaper effect." Rain-X is applied to the ski or board base, or to the bottoms of ski boots to reduce, or eliminate snow "wedges" that interfere with proper mounting into ski bindings.

Pye Min

Pye Min (Burmese: ပြည်မင်း, pronounced [pjé mɪ́ɰ̃]; 26 May 1619 – 14 April 1672) was king of Toungoo dynasty from 1661 to 1672. Pye Min was a son of King Thalun. During the reign of his brother Pindale, the Prince of Pyay (Prome) led the Burmese resistance against Southern Ming and Qing incursions.

King Pindale, however, lost his popularity and Pye was urged to take the throne. Pye staged a coup in 1661, overthrowing Pindale and crowning himself King of Ava.

Pye was determined to reduce the power of Yongli Emperor of Southern Ming at Sagaing and held a conference of Chinese officials. Yongli suspected this as an assassination trick and instead ordered his armies to clash with the Burmese. However, the Chinese were largely decimated. In 1662, the Qing armies invaded Burma and Pye Min decided to leave the last Ming Emperor to the Qing. Yongli Emperor was carried out of Burma.

There was a Mon rebellion around Martaban in 1661 and in 1662 Lan Na was invaded by the Siamese armies under King Narai who held the city temporarily. The rest of his reign were largely uneventful and Pye Min died in 1672, succeeded by his son Narawara.

Early life

The future king was born to King Thalun and a minor queen Khin Myat Hset of Pinya on 26 May 1619.Prome (Pyay or Pye) on 13 September 1650 (Tuesday, 4th waning of Tawthalin 1012 ME) by King Pindale.

Iberodactylus

Iberodactylus is a genus of pterodactyloid pterosaurs belonging to the clade Anhangueria, that during the Early Cretaceous lived in the area of present Spain. The type species is Iberodactylus andreui.

History of discovery and naming

Map of the Los Quiñones site

In the late 1980s, amateur paleontologist Javier Andreu discovered a pterosaur skull at the Los Quiñones site, 1 kilometer (0.62 mi) west of Obón in Aragón. At the time it represented the most complete discovery of pterosaur fossil material in Spain apart from the remains of Prejanopterus. In 2014, the find was reported in the scientific literature by José Antonio Ulloa-Rivas and identified as a member of the Ornithocheiroidea.

In 2019, the type species, Iberodactylus andreui, was named and described by Borja Holgado, Rodrigo Vargas Pêgas, José Ignacio Canudo, Josep Fortuny, Taissa Rodrigues, Julio Company and Alexander Wilhelm Armin Kellner. The generic name combines a reference to Iberia with a Greek δάκτυλος, daktylos, meaning "finger", a common suffix in the names of pterosaurs, since the naming of Pterodactylus. The specific name honors Andreu as discoverer. Because the name was published in an electronic publication, its validity requires Life Science Identifiers. These are 0174E98C-416B-4C49-AF63-2B42AF1E9EAB for the genus and 37FAC334-082A-4185-970E-7E7E13D5670C for the species.

The holotype, MPZ-2014/1, was found in a chalkstone layer of the Blesa Formation dating from the Barremian. It consists of a partial front snout with crest, containing a number of broken teeth and empty tooth sockets. The fossil is part of the collection of the Museo de Ciencias Naturales de la Universidad de Zaragoza.

Snouts of Iberodactylus and Hamipterus

Size and distinguishing traits


Iberodactylus

Size and distinguishing traits

The wingspan of Iberodactylus was estimated in 2019 by extrapolating the proportions of the related genus Hamipterus of which skull-wing ratios are known. The extrapolations indicated a wingspan that measured between 375 and 404 centimeters (12.30 and 13.25 ft). From this it was concluded that the paired wings were about 4 meters (13 ft) wide. This would make Iberodactylus the largest pterosaur found in the Iberian peninsula up to 2019.

The describing authors indicated two distinguishing traits. They are autapomorphies, unique derived characters. The tip of the premaxilla is relatively tall. The crest on the premaxilla has a front edge curving to the front under an angle of about 80 degrees.

Skull

The fossil skull fragment has a preserved length of 198 millimeters (7.8 in) and a height of 128 millimeters (5.0 in). The snout or rostrum is somewhat expanded at the front. The palate is keeled on the midline and turns upwards at the front.

The snout bears a crest of which the base alone has been preserved. The front edge of the crest is positioned above the fifth tooth socket. The base of the crest is wide in side view, despite lacking its rear edge. The fracture in the fossil reveals that the bone wall is about 1.5 millimeters (0.059 in) thick, and the crest is filled with small bone struts called trabeculae. The crest is triangular in cross-section. Its sides are covered by vertical ridges and troughs. These run parallel to the forward curvature of the crest. Because the crest, a plausible display structure, is relatively robust, the authors assumed that the specimen represents a male individual. The fossil resembles Hamipterus but in that latter genus, the snout is lower and the front edge of the crest straighter. On the base of the edge small holes are visible. Their edges seem to be too sharp for them to be natural foramina in the bone wall. It was suggested that they could be tunnels made by bone-eating larvae of beetles.


Iberodactylus

The maxilla bears at least eight conical teeth. The teeth have an elliptical cross-section. They are positioned more laterally on the jaw. The teeth increase in size until the third tooth, which with a width of 2 centimeters (0.79 in) is twice as wide as the first tooth. The fourth tooth becomes abruptly smaller and is about as large as the first. The fifth tooth is larger and the sixth is about as wide as the third. The seventh and eight teeth again abruptly decline in size, being somewhat smaller than the first one.

Phylogeny

Iberodactylus was, within the Anhangueria, placed in the clade Hamipteridae, named in the same 2019 article. It was recovered as the sister species of Hamipterus. The close affinity with a Chinese form would prove that the Anhangueria originated from the east of Laurasia.cladogram below follows a topology made by Rodrigo Pêgas and colleagues in 2019. They recovered Iberodactylus within the family Hamipteridae, as originally proposed in its description.
