Abstract The Late Triassic–Early Jurassic fissures of the Bristol Channel area (southwest England and south Wales) are renowned for their diverse vertebrate faunas. These assemblages have yielded an array of predominantly small‐bodied forms that are crucial to our understanding of the early evolution of several major tetrapod clades.

Sexing of cattle on the basis of the osteometry of metacarpal bones (XVI – XVII centuries) [PDF]
The aim of performed study was to measure complete metacarpal bones of cattle from XIV–XVII th c., to estimate measurement range typical for cows, steers and bulls (XIV–XVII th c) and to use obtained range for sexing distal parts of metacarpal bones ...

Abstract The Dasyurid species Sarcophilus harrisii, Dasyurus maculatus, and Dasyurus viverrinus, occupying diverse ecological niches and forming a guild structure in Tasmania, provide a basis for examining the roles of various forelimb muscle groups in prey capture and locomotion.

Osteosarcoma of the Metacarpal Bone
Osteosarcoma commonly develops around the knee joint, and rarely in the hand. Patients with osteosarcoma of the hand often present with pain and swelling, and osteosarcoma of the hand has a biological behavior that differs from that of osteosarcoma at conventional sites.

Evolutionary morphology of the haplorhine hamate
Abstract Primates adopt a variety of hand postures during an impressive diversity of locomotor and manipulative behaviors. Morphological research has found that elements of the hand skeleton, such as the hamate, hold key information for inferring hand use and locomotor kinematics in extinct species.

Scaling and ecomorphology of lagomorph body shape and appendicular skeleton
Abstract Body shape is one of the most prominent features of phenotypic variation. Yet, mammalian body shapes are poorly quantified and the underlying components contributing to its diversity and its relationship to other skeletal components are rarely tested.
