Morphology of the coracoid of Late Cretaceous enantiornithines (Aves: Enantiornithes) from Dzharakuduk (Uzbekistan)

Abstract: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1134/S0031030118020089

Based on serial material from the Turonian of Dzharakuduk (central Kyzyl Kum, Uzbekistan), the morphology of coracoid of enantiornithines is described in detail. Variants of each morphological element are considered; this allows determination of the taxonomic position of enantiornithines even using small coracoid fragments.
