dc.description.abstract
A novel metric comparison of the appendicular skeleton (fore and hind limb) of
different vertebrates using the Compositional Data Analysis (CDA) methodological
approach it’s presented.
355 specimens belonging in various taxa of Dinosauria (Sauropodomorpha, Theropoda,
Ornithischia and Aves) and Mammalia (Prothotheria, Metatheria and Eutheria) were
analyzed with CDA.
A special focus has been put on Sauropodomorpha dinosaurs and the Aitchinson
distance has been used as a measure of disparity in limb elements proportions to infer
some aspects of functional morphology
