Methodology
  • Computed tomographic (CT) scans were performed at the University of Michigan Computed Tomography in Earth and Environmental Science facility (“CTEES”) in Ann Arbor, MI, USA., using a Nikon XT H 225ST uCT system with a 2.5-mm-thick copper filter. The scanner is equipped with a tungsten target and was autoconditioned to maximum capacity at 225 kV. Scans settings were as follows: voltage = 183 kV, current = 200 uA; exposure time = 2.83 s; voxel size, x = XXXXX mm y = XXXXX mm z = XXXXXX mm; slice dimension (in pixels), x = XXXXX, y = XXXXX; projections = optimized; frames captured/projection = 2.
Description
  • The scanned distal right humerus is part of an associated skeleton of the pterosaur Inabtanin alarabia, accessioned to Yarmouk University (YUPC-INAB-6-001–010) in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. The specimen was collected from Late Cretaceous-aged sediments near Tal Inab in south-central Jordan, which is 34 km north of the current border with Saudi Arabia. For inquiries about access, please contact Jeff Wilson Mantilla ( wilsonja@umich.edu) or Iyad Zalmout ( izalmout@ksu.edu.sa). Casts of this and other elements of Inabtanin alarabia are available at the University of Michigan Museum of Paleontology.
