Shave your head.
While it is definitely interesting that they've been sighted, it does not disprove evolution or prove the existence of God.
The if we evolved from monkeys, why are there still monkeys argument was never a very good one.

I have not seen any credible reports of sightings of Pterodactyls either.

Firstly; I'm a Christian. Now - to your question. Science can not prove there is a God nor there is not a God. Why? Because Science deals with the tangible and God is a spirit-being; therefore, He isn't tangible and cannot be proven either way ! The Scientific evidence points towards a Creator re: Decay of Uranium 232 and the Fossil Record i.e. Cambrian phyla "Big Bang" .
As far as, validity of Evolution, let the Scientists from this world's prominent Universities and colleges do the dialogue at Center for Science & Culture (CSC) :

This is a real eye-opener for both, Christians and Atheists alike !!! (You don't have to shave your head -either !!!)

Start shaving my friend....
Are the pterosaurs' wings 15 feet plus across the wingspan..? These creatures need land to survive as they are not evolved to survive in trees..? What species are we talking about, there are over 30 known species of pterosaur, most with wingspans of 10 meters plus. This would be an interesting find as there are no known living specimens of a late Jurassic to early Cretaceous creature known to survive.
The best example of an ancient creature surviving till modern times is the Coelacanth (it's a fish). This was a Devonian creature (410 MYA ... million years ago). It survived according to the fossil record till the Cretaceous (65 MYA), where it was thought to become extinct with the K-T boundary event. However, a living specimen was discovered as late as 1938 and since then 2 species have been discovered and many examples of each. The modern creature however is not the same creature as the one in the fossil record. Modern Coelacanth's are far different from their Cretaceous cousins. The 2 surviving species are known as the Latimeria Chalumnae and Latimeria Menadoensis, both of the Genus Latimeria. These are modern animals not ancient creatures yet they are evolved from their ancient relatives with features common to them.
Pterosaurs need land to survive and breed, not trees, they were never a tree dweller because of their wings size. Small Pterosaurs are even older than the larger species making the claim of sightings even more difficult to believe, but even these smaller creatures had wing spans of about a meter. These smaller creatures would be vulnerable to any bird of reasonable size and they are sea born creatures, fish eaters.
It would be very interesting to know the species and genus of the creatures in question, unless it's just another hoax sighting as the one in 1856 which "turned to dust on sight".
Peace from a Buddhist.....

Start shaving. There were idiots south of San Antonio that were saying the same thing.
You know that would be big enough for radar to pick them up? Good luck finding them.

How much is a pound of pteradactyl going for these days? Phewww!!!! I think I'm going to hang out over in the philosophy section for a while and see what my old friends Socrates and Aristotle are up to.

Better start sharpening your razor.
What does evolution have to do with a belief in God? The two concepts are neither mutually exclusive nor complimentary.
