Quantification of intraskeletal histovariability in Alligator mississippiensis and implications for vertebrate osteohistology
Bone microanalyses of extant vertebrates provide a necessary framework from which to form hypotheses regarding the growth and skeletochronology of extinct taxa. Here, we describe the bone microstructure and quantify the histovariability of appendicular elements and osteoderms from three juvenile Ame...
