Isolated pterosaur teeth from the Lower Cretaceous localities Mogoito, Shestakovo (Russia), Khodzhakul, and Sheikhdzheili (Uzbekistan) are described. They are characterised by triangular-shaped crown flattened labio-lingually and usually bent inwards, and by the enamel restricted to the tooth apex and asymmetrically distributed. By this peculiar morphology the teeth described could be referred to the pterodactyloid family Ornithocheiridae, world-wide distributed in the Albian-Cenomanian.
