Mammalian forelimb evolution is driven by uneven proximal-to-distal morphological diversity
Vertebrate limb morphology often reflects the environment due to variation in locomotor requirements. However, proximal and distal limb segments may evolve differently from one another, reflecting an anatomical gradient of functional specialization that has been suggested to be impacted by the timin...
