The baubellum is more developmentally and evolutionarily labile than the baculum. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2018 Our research summarizes the evolutionary history and development of the clitoral bone, the baubellum. Our meta‐analysis shows that this bone arose multiple independent times in mammals, and its history has more transitions and its development is more variable than the penis bone, the baculum.
