==Classification== [[File:Dsungaripterus skull at IVPP.jpg|thumb|Skull IVPP V4064, [[Paleozoological Museum of China]]]] [[File:Dsungaripterus skeletal.jpg|thumb|upright|Skeletal reconstruction]] ''Dsungaripterus'' was classified by Yang as a member of the [[Dsungaripteridae]]. Below is a [[cladogram]] showing the results of a [[phylogenetic]] analysis presented by Andres and colleagues in 2014. They recovered ''Dsungaripterus'' within the clade [[Dsungaripteromorpha]] (a subgroup within the Azhdarchoidea), more specifically within the Dsungaripteridae, sister taxon to ''[[Domeykodactylus]]''. Their cladogram is shown below.<ref name=kryptodrakon>{{Cite journal | doi = 10.1016/j.cub.2014.03.030| title = The Earliest Pterodactyloid and the Origin of the Group| journal = Current Biology| year = 2014| last1 = Andres | first1 = B. | last2 = Clark | first2 = J. | last3 = Xu | first3 = X. | pmid=24768054 | volume=24 | issue = 9| pages=1011–6| doi-access = free | bibcode = 2014CBio...24.1011A}}</ref> {{clade| style=font-size:100%;line-height:100% |label1=[[Dsungaripteromorpha]] |1={{clade |label1=[[Dsungaripteridae]] |1={{clade |label1=[[Dsungaripterinae]] |1={{clade |1='''''Dsungaripterus weii''''' |2=''[[Domeykodactylus ceciliae]]'' [[File:Domeykodactylus (1).jpg|25px]] }} |label2=[[Noripterinae]] |2={{clade |1=''[[Noripterus parvus]]'' |2=''[[Noripterus complicidens]]'' }} }} |label2=[[Thalassodrominae]] |2={{clade |1=''[[Thalassodromeus sethi]]'' |2={{clade |1=''[[Tupuxuara longicristatus]]'' |2=''[[Tupuxuara leonardii]]'' }} }} }} }} In 2019, a different topology, this time by Kellner and colleagues, was published. In this study, ''Dsungaripterus'' was recovered outside the Azhdarchoidea, within the larger group [[Tapejaroidea]], sister taxon to ''Noripterus''.
