Sauripterus humerus

3D Model

The humerus of the right pectoral fin of Sauripterus taylori (Specimen ANSP20581). The rest of the fin skeleton is here

The proximal articular surface, which would have articulated with the shoulder girdle, is down. The distal articular surface, which would have articulated with the ulna and radius, is up.

This model was generated for the study Stewart et al. 2019 PNAS (link to paper).
