 Most pteranodontians like "Pteranodon" flew like modern day albatrosses, which consists of flying very long distances and rarely flapping.The name "Wyomingopteryx" appears in a painting of Morrison prehistoric animals by Robert Bakker.However, this binomen is a "nomen nudum", and it is possible that Bakker may have intended to coin "Wyomingopteryx" for the "Istiodactylus"-like specimen TATE 5999 because that specimen is found in Wyoming.
