Pterosauria

'''This pterosaur is a completely new species of pterosaur related to pterosaurs like Tapejara and Tupuxuara which also have this large sail-like crest formed on it's head. It may have been brightly colored with a distinguished pattern on it as another to attract mates or use it a type of distraction for the crest makes the male pterosaurs of this genus larger than it is. Just like the other Brazilian Cresters it would have used its crest and wings like sails and float around the water catching it's prey by hardly being noticed by the monsters of the deep when they are sailing across the water. Caiuajara would have been covered in feather-like fur to make as insulation since they were mostly fish eaters and lived along the coast line in large holes in the rock wall of the sea shore but, also would have been used as a home against any oncoming storms that would come by in the seasons.'''

Just like normal sea side birds the adults may have also have taken care of any chicks that it was taking care of and taken turns feeding for both themselves and for the chick for also like any other aquatic aerial avian they would have only laid up to 1 to 3 eggs per clutch and would leave them once they would become old enough to leave the nest on their own.
