Exempel på humeri

• The thorax and scutellum are black and somewhat polished; the humeri are lightcoloured.

• It contains six vertebrae, the coracoids, the humeri, a right radius and three spines.

• The heads of the "humeri" and "femora" with many fossils show necrosis of the bone tissue, caused by a too rapid ascent after deep diving.

• The arms were short, with longer upper arms (humeri) than lower arms (ulna).

• The humeri do not have a free medullary cavity.

• The postcranial skeleton includes several articulated neural arches with ribs, most of the left shoulder girdle, humeri, right radius and ulna, and a femur.

• The humeri are robust, about 63 cm long, with very expanded distal and proximal ends.

• Six humeri have been found; the bone is robust and an entepicondylar foramen is present in the distal (far) end.

• The humerus is also straight at the lower end, unlike the twisted humeri seen in other related pterosaurs, a third unique trait.

• Both scapulae and coracoids are preserved in position, but the rest of the forelimbs are gone, except for phalanges and pieces of humeri, ulnae and radii.

• The material includes two complete tarso-metatarsi, five vertebrae, one sacrum, one coracoid, two humeri, one ulna, three femora, ten pedal phalanxes and one fragment of the left mandibula.
