Figure 3 in Evolutionary morphology of the coelurosaurian arctometatarsus: descriptive, morphometric and phylogenetic approaches

Figure 3. Morphological features of the third metatarsal (MT III) of tyrannosaurids. A, anterior view (bottom; scale bar = 10 cm) and proximal view (top), not to scale, of left Tyrannosaurus rex MT III. Note hooked cross section in proximal view, rugose striated scar for proximal articulation with MT II, proximal splint, and deep oblique ligament fossa. B, posterior view of left T. rex MT III. Distally, the metatarsal constricts to form a ridge, making the element triangular in this region. Note distal scars for ligamentous articulation with MT II and IV.
