Detailed observations of each vertebra within the cervical, dorsal, lumbar, and caudal regions illuminate the unique characteristics of Pelecanus' skeletal framework. The author's exploration of the sternum and ribs further enriches the comprehensive examination of the axial skeleton, solidifying this book's position as a valuable contribution to the field of avian osteology.
