It consists of several elements that articulate with the tibia and fibula at one end and the metatarsals at the other end.[AAO] set of tarsal bones tarsal bones SCTID:361796005 Wikipedia:Tarsus_(skeleton) tarsalia Not always associated with digits, in sarcopterygians the ulnare is present without true digits being formed, though their homologous radial elements are present VSAO:0005024 UBERON:0009879 hind mesopodial skeleton VHOG:0001160 tarsus skeletal parts of hind mesopodium hind mesopodium skeleton MA:0000050 FMA:71339 hind mesopodium The three main outgroup taxa of tetrapods, panderichthyids, osteolepiforms, and rhizodontids, have endoskeletal elements corresponding to the stylo- and zeugopodial elements in a tetrapod limb. In addition, there are elements that share the position and possibly the developmental derivation of the ulnare and the intermedium. From these observations, most authors have concluded that the stylo- and zeugopodial elements as well as the proximal mesopodial elements have counterparts in the fins of tetrapod ancestors, but there are no indications of wrist or ankle joints.[well established][VHOG] SCTID:264228001 GAID:1223 mesopodium basipodium AAO:0000220 XAO:0003211 Subdivision of skeleton that consists of endochondral elements distal to the zeugopodial skeletal elements which constitute the proximal region of the posterior autopod skeleton[PHENOSCAPE:ad]. EMAPA:19133 tarsal bones set we assume MA:tarsus belongs here, as there is a distinct class MA:ankle, with the tarsal bone being part of the former. XAO:tarsus is part of the hindlimb skeleton.
