Frame sizes on WLAN / Ethernet


I have a question regarding frames passed from a wireless medium through an Access Point over to ordinary Ethernet. Since the allowed frame sizes on WLAN:s are larger than Ethernet, what will happen if this occours? (Since most AP:s work as a Layer 2 bridge then no Layer 3 fragmentionen could help. Or?)
