Muzquizopteryx was relatively small for a pterodactyloid pterosaur, with a wingspan of around 2 metres (6 ft 7 in). It had an elongated head with a convex upper profile, ending at the back of the head in a backward pointing short rounded crest. The jaws were toothless. The arms were very robust with the humerus featuring a large hatchet-shaped deltopectoral crest, indicating a strong wing musculature. The pteroid bone was long and pointed towards the neck, supporting a flight membrane.
