This creature would have looked like a seagull on steroids - its wingspan was between 6.1 and 7.4m (20-24ft).
The find is published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
The 25m-year-old fossil was unearthed 30 years ago in South Carolina, but it has taken until now to identify that
this is a new species.
