Scansiopteryx had a long middle finger but probably didn't use it for feeding
How Well Do You Know Reptiles?

Didn’t think so, but there was always the chance someone had suggested it!
What about Venetorapter for number 1?
1. According to Venetoraptor - Wikipedia, the family Lagerpetidae belonged to the Pterosauromorpha, but not the Pterosauria. Members of the Lagerpetidae included Venetoraptor, Lagerpeton and Scleromochlus and none of them seems closer to the Ptrosauria than the others.
I was thinking of Sharovipteryx (Sharovipteryx - Wikipedia), which was a gliding reptile, possibly linked to pterosaurs (Sharovipteryx). As it also may have been related to tanystropheids, I'll let you have the point. I suppose I should have cross-checked that question.

3. Clue: It was an aetosaurian, which lived in the Late Triassic.
5. The answer was Scansoriopteryx, although I found the information for Epidendrosaurus, which is probably a synonym. Scansiopteryx is so similar, I'll let you have that.

So were you thinking Typothorax for 3? To be honest, reading a little of the literature, I think any Aetosaur would be an acceptable answer.
You're rather behind on palaeontological discoveries, Dassie! There have been multiple skeletons known for a decade or so now - and it was far stranger than anyone expected
looking something like a cross between a camel and a shoebill!

Thanks, TeaLovingDave
It can be hard to determine which information is true, especially as it can change rapidly. I'll try and cross-reference material for future questions, rather than just using 1 website

I was thinking of Stagonolepis, but I agree that other aetosaurs may have resembled an armadillo. I got some of my questions from 10 of the Weirdest Prehistoric Creatures, but I should have cross-referenced some of them. Thanks for your patience. I'm sorry for the confusion I've caused.
It's your turn to set up questions
Can I therefore propose a change? With multiple questions whoever answers first will give some answers to all, making it difficult to determine who should set the next set. What about single questions?
Thanks, Tetzoo Quizzer
I agree

What reptilian event happened on April 13th, 2019, and in which zoo?
The “event” I am looking for happened happened on this specific date only.

reptile fest btw
No. By “event” I mean historical happening, not a display or similar.

Epidendrosaurus was a nearly larger, and much different creature than the Scansoriopteryx.

No.
