In 2003, a team of researchers led by Lawrence Witmer studied the brain anatomy of several types of pterosaurs, including "Rhamphorhynchus muensteri", using endocasts of the brain they retrieved by performing CAT scans of fossil skulls. Using comparisons to modern animals, they were able to estimate various physical attributes of pterosaurs, including relative head orientation during flight and coordination of the wing membrane muscles. Witmer and his team found that "Rhamphorhynchus" held its head parallel to the ground due to the orientation of the "osseous labyrinth" of the inner ear, which helps animals detect balance. In contrast, pterodactyloid pterosaurs, such as "Anhanguera", appear to have normally held their heads at a downward angle, both in flight and while on the ground.
