Thoracic Vertebrae Measurements for Parabos tigneresi from Camp dels Ninots

Camp dels Ninots provides the source for this dataset of thoracic vertebrae measurements in millimeters for the extinct mammal Parabos tigneresi. Leonardo Sorbelli created the dataset, which includes estimated values and was last updated on June 3, 2026. The data is stored in a 12.7 KB XLSX file under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Conducting morphometric analysis based on vertebral measurements.
• Estimating body size and proportions of Parabos tigneresi based on thoracic vertebrae dimensions.
• Comparing fossil morphology with related species based on the described measurement data.
• Assessing taphonomic effects on bone preservation based on the inclusion of estimated measurements.

Strengths

• Dataset is focused on a specific anatomical element (thoracic vertebrae) for a single species.
• Includes both direct and estimated measurements, as noted in the description.
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for reuse.
• File size of 12.7 KB suggests a manageable, focused collection of measurements.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
