Description

Fig. 12 A Sketch of a transversal section of a generalized squamate hindlimb, based on Bishop et al. (2021) and B the resulting width of the skin after muscle disappearance and flattening; C the extension of the skin at the mid section of the femur in specimen MCSN 8713. Hypothesized shape and size of the coracobrachialis (D) and triceps (E) muscles in Lariosaurus valceresii, based on the proposed reconstruction of the limb musculature in sauropterygians by Araujo & Correia (2015)
