TL;DR


Summary:
- The article discusses the discovery of a new species of ancient reptile, *Kuehneosaurus latus*, which possessed unique wing-like structures that allowed it to glide.
- Researchers from the University of Bristol utilized modern biomechanical analysis to determine that these creatures likely used their lateral appendages for controlled gliding rather than powered flight.
- The study provides significant insights into the evolutionary history of early archosauromorphs and the development of aerodynamic adaptations in the Triassic period.
