An overview of the osseous palmar sesamoid in Anura, with the particular case of some Rhinella species [PDF]
Background Sesamoids are generally regarded as structures that are not part of the tetrapod body plan. The presence of a palmar sesamoid is assumed to serve as a distribution point for the forces of the flexor digitorum communis muscle to the flexor ...
