Exempel på ilium

• The supraacetabular processes of the ilia are flattened and do not curve ventrally in lateral view.

• The rib of the second fused vertebra would have articulated with the anterior process of the ilium, and so these two are dorsosacrals.

• The posterior process of the ilium is moderately developed and ventrally bears a strong ridge, and the acetabulum is deeply concave.

• It had been accidentally transferred there from an element of the attire that rested on the ilium; none had been deliberately applied directly to the body.

• The first rib is slender and would have either been free or fused to the anterior process of the ilium (the latter has now been lost on both sides).

• The ilium was short and low, the pubis thin.

• It can be defined as a compound structure of the arcuate line (from the ilium) and pectineal line (from the pubis).

• In the pelvis, the ilium, ischium and pubis are fused.

• This groove is bounded medially by an eminence, the iliopubic eminence (or iliopectineal eminence), which marks the point of union of the ilium and pubis.

• It is made up of the ilium, the ischium, and the pubis.

• The fossil remains included vertebrae, limb bones, scapula, hip bones (pubis, ilium, and ischium) and several ribs.

• Both the pectoral girdle and the ilium are large and strong.

• In the pelvis the ilium was by a moderate inclination partly adapted to a more raised position of the trunk.

• Despite its very young age, the hatchling was able to walk, as is shown by the complete ossification of the ilium.

• The holotype ilium is twenty-two centimetres long, indicating a small individual.
