The pectoralis muscle orientation as an indicator of the modes of wing‐propelled locomotion in birds

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.

The skeletal morphology unique to each WPL mode, related to the origin/insertion of the pectoralis, may be associated with these functional demands of pectoralis orientation.
