Jantan diwasa Pteranodon iku dianggep reptil ambur paling amba sing dingerteni nganti pterosaurus azhdarchid gedhé tinemu ing akir abad 20-an. Amba epek-epek swiwine Pteranodon lanang diwasa iku 5,6 m. pteranodon wadon Dhewasane luwih cilik ukurane,kira-kira 3,8 m nalika ngepek. Spesimen Pteranodon longiceps sing paling amba sing asalé saka Formasi Niobrara diukur 6,25 m saka pucuk swiwi nganti pucuk swiwine manèh. Spesimen sing swiwine paling amba manèh dingerteni saka Wujud Pierre Shale, kanthi rentangan 7,25 m, sing dianggep duwéke salah sijining génus lan spésies Geosternbergia maysei'' sing wis cures.
