Diagnosis
Reference | Diagnosis | |
---|---|---|
J. Y. Kim et al. 2012 | Tetradactyl bird tracks with prominent, postero medially directed hallux impressions comprise about one-third of total track length. Length with hallux is ∼ 7.5–8.0 cm; width, ∼ 6– 6.5 cm. Hypex between digits III and IV is more anteriorly situated than hypex between digits II and III. Semipalmate web is more strongly developed between digits III and IV than between II and III. Digit divarication between digits II and IV averages at least 110–120◦ wide. Step is short, with a strong tendency towards inward rotation. |
