Morphometric analysis of metacarpal and metatarsal bones of cave bears (Carnivora, Ursidae) [PDF]

Fossil Imprint, 2017
AbstractFor the first time, morphometric variation has been studied in metacarpal and metatarsal bones of all known taxa of cave bears, which belong to different molecular genetic groups (deningeri, kudarensis, spelaeus, and ingressus haplotypes). The examined material involves nearly three thousand specimens from 28 localities of Europe, the Urals ...
