Summary

Description
English: Osteohistology of UALVP 59606, metatarsal IV of Citipes elegans. Overview of histological thin section of UALVP 59606 in plane-polarized (A) and cross-polarized (B) light, showing locations of close-up images. Detail (C) of cortex showing predominantly primary fibrolamellar bone with longitudinal-reticular vascularity, endosteal layer, and cyclical growth marks (arrows), under plane-polarized light. Close-up (D) of well developed endosteal layer on the medullary cavity, showing sec- ondary excavation by simple vascular canals, under cross-polarized light. Close-up (E) of tightly packed cyclical growth marks (arrows) near the periosteal surface of the cortex, under plane-polarized light. Close-up (F) of periosteal surface of cortex, showing avascular parallel-fibered bone indicating an incipient external fundamental system (double ended arrow) with three LAGs (arrows). Abbreviations: efs, incipient external fundamental system; el, endosteal lamellae; hb, Haversian bone; pfb, parallel-fibered bone; radv, radial simple vascular canal; so, secondary osteon.
