Within the families Agamidae, Lacertidae and Scincidae, the carpal and tarsal elements, the sesamoidea and the ossification pattern show considerable variability. Furthermore, carpal and tarsal structure in the lizards studied here is not unique to the genera in question and identical or very similar conditions occur in other lizards. These elements contain sufficient anatomical information to make them taxonomically valuable.
在鬣蜥科、蜥蜴科和石龙子科中,腕骨和跗骨、籽骨以及骨化模式表现出相当大的变异性。此外,此处研究的蜥蜴的腕骨和跗骨结构并非所讨论属特有的,在其他蜥蜴中也存在相同或非常相似的情况。这些骨骼元素包含足够的解剖学信息,使其具有分类学价值。
