Arabian Oryx (Oryx leucoryx) Trachea: a Descriptive and Morphometric Analysis
The objective of this study was to report the distinctive anatomical and histological features of the trachea of the Arabian Oryx (Oryx leucoryx). The number of tracheal rings and tracheal length were measured. The diameter, thickness and cross sectional area of tracheal ring were determined at four...
