Anhanguera (An-hang-yoo-air-ah, meaning "old devil") is a genus of pterodactyloid pterosaur known from the Lower-Cretaceous. This pterosaur is closely related to Ornithocheirus, featured in "Walking With Dinosaurs".

Anhanguera was a fish-eating animal with a wingspan of about 4.5 m (15 ft). Like many other ornithocheirids, Anhanguera had a rounded crests at front of its upper and lower jaws, which were filled with angled, conical but curved teeth of various sizes and orientations. Like many of its relatives, the jaws were tapered in width, but expanded into a broad, spoon-shaped rosette at the tip. Like many ornithocheiroids, Anhanguera had an additional crest protruding from the back of the skull. However, it was reduced to a small, blunt projection in these animals.
