Ulna Measurements for Parabos Tigneresi from Camp dels Ninots

Leonardo Sorbelli published this dataset on figshare in June 2026. It contains millimeter-scale measurements of the ulna bone from the extinct mammal Parabos tigneresi, excavated from the Camp dels Ninots site. The 10.9 KB XLSX file includes estimated values, which are indicated in italics.

Use Cases

• Conducting comparative anatomical analysis based on ulna bone measurements.
• Estimating body size or functional morphology of Parabos tigneresi based on limb bone data.
• Performing statistical analysis on fossil measurement data, distinguishing between actual and estimated values.

Strengths

• Measurements are provided in millimeters, offering precise anatomical data.
• The dataset explicitly marks estimated measurements, allowing for clear data quality assessment.
• It is openly available under a CC-BY-4.0 license, facilitating reuse.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The dataset is very small at 10.9 KB, indicating a limited scope.
