	'''Arthurdactylus conandoylei''' is a fossil pterosaur (not a dinosaur) named by Eberhard Frey and David M. Martill in 1994 in honour of [[Sir Arthur Conan Doyle]]. It comes from the Lower Cretaceous Crato Formation of northeastern Brazil. This is especially fitting because [[The Lost World]] imagines prehistoric animals, including pterosaur-like creatures, surviving on a South American plateau.
