Tapejara was a genus of likely frugivorous pterosaurs from the Early Cretaceous Santana Formation of northeastern Brazil. They reached a wingspan of 3.5 meters (11 feet).
They can be easily recognized by their massive and presumably brightly coloured or patterned crests consisting of a bone frame with a sail stretched between. This crest varied in size (~1-3 feet across) between species, and is shared only with Tapejara's closest relatives. The genus Tupandactylus were formerly considered species of Tapejara.
