Morphofunctional Space of the Forelimb in Caraguatypotherium munozi (Notoungulata; Mesotheriidae): Insights Into Wrist‐Powered Digging

Journal of Morphology, Volume 286, Issue 8, August 2025.
Caraguatypotherium munozi displays a distinctive morphofunctional configuration combining high wrist flexor leverage with reduced elbow mechanical advantage—traits consistent with wrist‐dominated scratch‐digging. Multivariate analyses place it outside the core morphospaces of extant locomotor groups.
