The postcranial skeleton of temnospondyls (Tetrapoda: temnospondyli)

open access: yes, 2023
Temnospondyls are large extinct fossil tetrapods; superficially resembling crocodiles in their general size, appearance and lifestyle. Temnospondyls are a group of early tetrapods, the oldest fossils are more than 340 million years old, and they existed for more than 200 million years.

The postcranial skeleton of Ennatosaurus tecton (Synapsida, Caseidae)

open access: yesJournal of Systematic Palaeontology, 2017
The postcranial material referable to the Russian caseid Ennatosaurus tecton from the middle Permian is described. Although the cranium has been recently restudied in detail, the descriptions currently available for the postcranial skeleton are essentially limited to the original short account on the holotype provided by Efremov in 1956.

The postcranial skeleton of the Hyposaurinae (Dyrosauridae; Crocodyliformes)

Palaeontology, 2006
Abstract:  A detailed description of the postcranial skeleton of the Hyposaurinae is presented, based on the hitherto known and new postcranial material. The postcranial skeleton of the hyposaurine Dyrosauridae differs from that of all other crocodilians by the high neural spines, which can reach up to four times the length of the vertebral body ...

Relative growth of the postcranial skeleton in callitrichines

Journal of Human Evolution, 1992
Abstract This study presents the results and suggested functional implications of a metric analysis of skeletal size and shape variation in ontogenetic samples of three callitrichine species:Saguinus oedipus,Saguinus fuscicollis andCallithrix jacchus. Adult interspecific shape differences distinguishS. fuscicollis from the other species.

The postcranial skeleton of Mesozoic temnospondyl amphibians: a review

Alcheringa, 1991
Present knowledge of the postcranial skeleton of temnospondyl labyrinthodonts is reviewed, providing information on what positively assignable material is known. Some differences between the postcrania of the various families of temnospondyls are described, showing that detailed examination of postcranial elements does in fact reveal features which can

Postcranial pneumaticity: An evaluation of soft-tissue influences on the postcranial skeleton and the reconstruction of pulmonary anatomy in archosaurs

Journal of Morphology, 2006
Postcranial pneumaticity has been reported in numerous extinct sauropsid groups including pterosaurs, birds, saurischian dinosaurs, and, most recently, both crurotarsan and basal archosauriform taxa. By comparison with extant birds, pneumatic features in fossils have formed the basis for anatomical inferences concerning pulmonary structure and function,
