对上一楼表格的解释以及一些鱼龙测量方面的东西
Tooth length index可以计算牙齿长度
A. Continuous
1. Orbital ratio: ratio of orbital diameter to jaw length (HIL).
2. Snout ratio: ratio of snout length to jaw length (J/L).
3. Premaxillary ratio: ratio of premaxillary segment to jaw length (I/L).
4. Prenarial ratio: ratio of prenarial segment to to jaw length (B/L).
5. Maxillary tooth count: mean number of maxillary teeth.
6. Postorbital ratio: ratio of postorbital segment to jaw length (D/L).
7. Orbital position index: ratio of distance between centre of orbit and hindmost point of skull to distance between centre of orbit and most anterior point of skull (CIA).
8. Jaw depth ratio: ratio of jaw depth, measured at midpoint of jaw, to jaw length (G/L).
9. Snout depth ratio: ratio of snout depth, measured at midpoint of snout, to jaw length (E/L).
10. Tooth density index: number of upper and lower teeth counted in 10% of jaw length,centred at midpoint of snout (F).
11. Tooth length index: 10 x crown length of longest tooth divided by jaw length.
B. Multistate
12. External naris shape: petaloid (Fig. 5A), markedly elongate (Fig. 5B), or curviform (Fig. 5C).
13. Extracondylar extent: Extracondylar area (6) is much less extensive than condylar area (4) (Fig. 2A); areas are approximately equal (Fig. 2D), or extracondylar area is much more extensive than condylar area.
C. Dichotomous
14. Skull profile: rostrum grades gently into cranium (Fig. 5D) or is demarcated from cranium (Fig. 5E).
15. Condylar differentiation : basioccipital condyle is clearly defined and set off from extracondylar area (Fig. 2D) or is not (Fig. 2A).
16. Position of stapedial facet: stapedial facet (3) of basioccipital extends ventrally (Fig. 2D), or does not (Fig. 2A).
17. Basioccipital profile: anterior surface (5) of basioccipital is flat (fig. 2B), or convex (Fig. 2E).
18. Basioccipital peg: anterior surface of basioccipital is often extended into a peg (McGowan 1973a, p. 12, fig. 2). Peg (7) is well developed (Fig. 2E), weakly developed, or absent (Fig. 2B).
