Interspecific variation in the limb long bones among modern rhinoceroses—extent and drivers
Among amniotes, numerous lineages are subject to an evolutionary trend toward body mass and size increases. Large terrestrial species may face important constraints linked to weight bearing, and the limb segments are particularly affected by such constraints due to their role in body support and loc...
