I've always had a question about Sordes and now that I see its name to
remind me I'll ask it.
I've seen some pictures of Sordes on which its wings are attached to its

forelimbs and its hindlimbs. But there are pictures on which it has the
"classical" pterosaur wing (only attached to the arms). I think it's
quite
odd that only Sordes has the wing between both it's limbs. So could
anyone
say what picture is correct.
thanks

Strange, I've always considered the Sordes deep chord wing model to be
the classic and the narrow chord wing, as in John Conway's new
illustrations, to be the break from tradition.
