A systematic comparative description of extant turtle humeri, with comments on humerus disparity and evolution based on fossil comparisons

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 307, Issue 11, Page 3437-3505, November 2024.
Abstract The humerus is central for locomotion in turtles as quadrupedal animals. Osteological variation across testudine clades remains poorly documented. Here, we systematically describe the humerus anatomy for all major extant turtle clades based on 38 species representing the phylogenetic and ecological diversity of crown turtles.
