Primitively, [the tibiale] links the tibia with the distal tarsals, particularly the navicular. The term "tibiale" is not often used except for Paleozoic tetrapod and in some veterinary literature. Another synonym "talus", is used in medical work. 5, record 1, English, - astragal

Le basipode constitue le carpe (ou le tarse). Il correspond au poignet (ou à la cheville) et comprend une dizaine d'os courts, dont la disposition primitive et l'interprétation sont discutées [...] ils sont typiquement disposés en trois séries d'éléments; une première série de 3 os : radial (ou tibial), intermédiaire, ulnaire (ou fibulaire); une seconde série de 4 centraux et une troisième série de 5 carpiens (ou tarsiens). 2, record 2, French, - basipode
