Measurements, in mm, include functional length proximodistally (P–d len.); proximal, midshaft, and distal anteroposterior or dorsoplantar length perpendicular to the proximal-distal length (Prox. a–p, MS a–p, and Dist. a–p, respectively); and proximal, midshaft, and distal mesiolateral width perpendicular to the proximal-distal length (Prox. m–l, MS m–l, and Dist. m–l, respectively). Abbreviations: Mc, metacarpal; M ph., manual phalanx. Estimates are marked with an asterisk.
