Cartilaginous epiphyses in extant archosaurs and their implications for reconstructing limb function in dinosaurs.
Extinct archosaurs, including many non-avian dinosaurs, exhibit relatively simply shaped condylar regions in their appendicular bones, suggesting potentially large amounts of unpreserved epiphyseal (articular) cartilage. This "lost anatomy" is often underappreciated such that the ends of b...
