forelimb zeugopod in dogs

The middle limb segment of the pectoral free limb, between the autopod and stylopod segments. Includes as parts the forelimb zeugopodial skeleton, which includes as parts the radius and ulna, or their cartilage precursors, or evolutionary variants. Every claim on this page comes from the Leumas anatomy graph and carries its source.

What the forelimb zeugopod is

The middle limb segment of the pectoral free limb, between the autopod and stylopod segments. Includes as parts the forelimb zeugopodial skeleton, which includes as parts the radius and ulna, or their cartilage precursors, or evolutionary variants. The atlas records it as a region at the region scale in the dog.

Where the forelimb zeugopod is

It sits in the forelimb. Only the region is known. The position shown is somewhere plausible inside it and nothing more.

What the forelimb zeugopod connects to

The atlas records 22 typed relationships for it, across 3 kinds of connection. part of arm and forelimb.

Supply and innervation

This dataset asserts no arterial supply, venous drainage or innervation for the forelimb zeugopod. Only a minority of structures carry those edges here, so an empty answer means nothing has been recorded — not that there is nothing to record.
