- Peteinosaurus is a genus of basal pterosaur which lived during the late Triassic period in what is now North America and southern Europe. (212-200 MYA)
- The genus has been described by the German paleontologist Rupert Wild in 1978.[5] The type species is Peteinosaurus zambellii. The genus name is derived from Greek peteinos, "winged" and sauros, "lizard", the latter being used to indicate any saurian. The specific name, zambellii, honours Rocco Zambelli, the curator of the Bergamo natural history museum.
