Quote p. 246

Endlich hat das corpus ischii drei incisuras, die eine befindet sich über der Mitte des foraminis ovalis, und ist der untere fehlende Teil von der circumferenz des acetabuli, diese incisur wird durch das ligamentum transvesale zugeschlossen, unter welchera das ligamentum teres zu dem capite des ossis femoris fortgehet.

Quote pp. 255-256.

Fundus acetabuli, es ist der rauhe Ort, der sich ganz in der Tiese des acetabuli befindet, es fangt der fundus acetabuli da an zu entstehen, wo das acetabulum inwendig mit dem Knorpel überzogen zu werden audshört. Der fundus acetabuli, in welchem sich der ganze Klumpe von Gelenkdrusen leget, ist weit tiefer als die cavitas articularis und das caput des ossis femoris, welches durch das ligamentum teres gegen den fundum festgehalten wird, berüret nicht diesen fundum, damit die Gelenkdrüsen zum grössesten Nuzzen des ossis femoris in ihrem Absonderungsgeschäste nicht gestöret warden.

Vertebrates

VERTEBRATES According to the molecular clock, a specific method for dating phylogenetic events, vertebrates (Vertebrata) separated from arthropods (Arthropoda) 976±97 Ma (2004HedgesSB_ShoeJL). The latter began to dominate in species diversity with the Cambrian burst of radiation, which occurred 520 Ma (2010EdgecombeGD). This ratio in the fauna of the Earth is still preserved. Approximately 525 Ma, the phylum Chordates separated from the group of bilaterally symmetrical animals (1995ChenJY_ZhouGQ). In turn, the evolution of chordate organisms led to the formation of the first vertebrates at least 500 Ma, from which the jawed mouths 450-400 Ma descended, becoming the ancestors of the placoderms or "armored" fish (Placodermi) (1979 НаумовНП _ КарташевНН ).
