Nesodactylus was a genus of rhamphorhynchid pterosaur from the middle-late Oxfordian age[1] Upper Jurassic Jagua Formation of Pinar del Río, western Cuba.

Its remains were collected but not prepared by Barnum Brown in 1918, from rocks better known for their fossils of marine life.

When seven black chalkstone blocks were prepared from 1966 by Richard Lund by dissolving the substrate in acid, this revealed the remains of a pterosaur.

The genus is based on holotype AMNH 2000, a partial skeleton including a skull fragment, numerous vertebrae from all parts of the spine and tail, zygapophyses (interpreted by Colbert as ossified tendons) on the tail, the pectoral girdle and a very deeply keeled sternum, arms and partial hands, part of the pelvis, parts of both femora, partial metatarsals, and ribs.

The specimen was disarticulated but associated and not very compressed; during the preparation from the limestone with acid, the bones were not completely removed.
