Pteranodon is the most widely-recognized pterosaur of all time but its fragile remains (usually found crushed) are actually very rare finds in the Niobrara Chalk. Many collectors are happy to obtain an identifiable bone end.

The wingspan of Pteranodon varied between 3 and 6 meters (10-20 feet). Here are some pieces of the wing set in a Riker Mount and ready to display.
