Azhdarcho is an extinct genus of pterodactyloid pterosaur from the Late Cretaceous Period (Upper Turonian-Coniacian, about 89 million years ago) of Uzbekistan. It is known from fragmentary remains including the distinctive, elongated neck vertebrae that characterizes members of the family Azhdarchidae, which also includes such giant pterosaurs as Quetzalcoatlus. The name Azhdarcho comes from the Uzbek word azhdarkho, the name of a dragon in Uzbek mythology. The specific name A. lancicollis derives from the Latin words lancea (meaning "lance" or "spear") and collum ("neck").
