Specimens and 3D Data

Carnotaurus sastrei MACN 894 View specimen

M3#802_MACN 894 3D reconstruction of the biggest patch of skin (~1200 cm2) from the anterior tail region of the holotype of Carnotaurus, which is the largest single patch of squamous integument available for any saurischian. The skin consists of medium to large (up to 65 mm in diameter) conical feature scales surrounded by a network of low and small (< 14 mm) irregular basement scales separated by narrow interstitial tissue. Type: "3D_surfaces" 3D view: doi: 10.18563/m3.sf.802 Data citation: Hendrickx C., Bell P., 2021. M3#802_MACN 894. doi: 10.18563/m3.sf.802
