Pisiform Bone Measurements for Parabos Tigneresi from Camp dels Ninots

10.6 KB of measurements in millimeters for the pisiform bone of the extinct bovid Parabos tigneresi, excavated from the Camp dels Ninots site. The dataset, created by Leonardo Sorbelli and last updated on 2026-06-03, includes estimated measurements indicated in italics and is shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Comparative anatomical analysis based on pisiform bone measurements.
• Morphometric studies of Parabos tigneresi based on the described bone dimensions.
• Paleoecological inference based on the fossil measurements from a specific site.
• Methodological research on handling estimated vs. direct fossil measurements.

Strengths

• Measurements are explicitly provided in millimeters, a standard unit.
• Dataset distinguishes between direct and estimated measurements using italics.
• Specific provenance is given for the fossil source (Camp dels Ninots) and species (Parabos tigneresi).
• Clear CC-BY-4.0 license facilitates open reuse.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The 10.6 KB size indicates a very limited scope, likely containing only a small number of specimens.
