The development of the marsupial shoulder girdle: A case study in Monodelphis domestica
… aspects of the shoulder arch is an enlarged coracoid. After marsupial newborns reach the teat, the shoulder arch is remodeled and the coracoid is reduced to a small process on the scapula. Although an understanding of marsupial coracoid reduction has the potential to provide insights into …

Morfologia do esqueleto apendicular e das cinturas peitoral e pélvica dos Titanosauridae (Dinosauria: Sauropoda) do neocratáceo de Minas Gerais, Brasil
… bone categories, which were separated into 1 ( coracoid, humerus, tibia), 2 (scapula., sternal plate, ulna, femur, fibula), 3 (pubis, ischium) or 4 (radius) distinct morphotypes. The morphotypes are widespread among the three main collecting sites. From a total of 42 possible synapomorphies …

Heterogeneidade morfológica escapular e umeral em micromamíferos terrestres (Rodentia: Sigmodontinae): relações com as estratégias de uso dos habitats
… is wide. A narrow scapula as well as a robust coracoid process and a relatively low scapular spine characterize the scansorial forms. The contrast between arboreal and scansorial forms suggests plasticity in the use of the structural resources of the environment, especially for the scansorial …

Anatomical Variations and Degenerative Features of the Coracoacromial Ligament (CAL) in Shoulders with Rotator Cuff Tears
… sites: degenerative changes include acromial and coracoid spurs and attrition lesions at the undersurface of the acromion.<br/><br/>Results: the multiple banded ligament was the most commonly observed type and was seen in 101 (46%) specimens. The attachment sites of the ligament varied as the size …

Investigating the Patterns of Convergence in Pectoral Girdle Reduction During the Evolution of Limblessness in Lerista (Scincidae)
… to occur concurrently such as the losses of the coracoid foramen and the humerus, but other events such as the loss of the epicoracoid are not consistently associated with any other event. The extent to which limb reduction is associated with the degree of pectoral girdle reduction and the …

A Comparison of the Pectoral Spines in Virginia Catfishes
… for wild channel catfish, and the ratio of coracoid to cleithrum depth varied among species. Pectoral girdle weight increased linearly with fish weight in blue catfish, cultured channel catfish, brown bullheads, and margined and tadpole madtoms. However, girdle weight, a major component of …

3D approximation of scapula bone shape from 2D X-ray images using landmark-constrained statistical shape model fitting
… Only three (the inferior angle, acromion and the coracoid process) of the eight reproducible landmarks considered were selected as these were identifiable from the two different perspectives required for X-ray stereophotogrammetry in this project. For the last phase, an approximation of a scapula …
