 Based on a partial skeleton missing part of the tail, some ribs, a hand, and parts of the legs, it was a small animal, about 10 centimeters (4 in) long from the skull to the hips.Like its relative "Kuehneosaurus", it was able to glide short distances using 'wings' consisting of highly elongated ribs covered with skin.These gliding membranes would have had a convex upper surface and a concave lower surface, thus creating a simple airfoil structure well-suited to gliding.
