Anterior articular facet width | 20.3 | |
Posterior articular facet height | 17.7 | |
Posterior articular facet width | 20.1 | |
Maximum height of the vertebra | (38.5) | |
Length along zygapophyses | (28.8) | |
Length of base of neural spine | 18.6 | |
Width of neural spine | 9.4 | |

Length | (109.5) |
Values between brackets indicate incomplete measurements and the value given is the maximum measurable. The length along the zygapophyses is the maximum anteroposterior length between the anterior tips of the prezygapophyses and the posterior tips of the postzygapophyses. Maximum deviation of the digital caliper equals 0.02 mm but measurements were rounded to the nearest 0.1 millimeter.
