SCTID:272683001 jugal The jugal is a skull bone found in most reptiles, amphibians, and birds. In mammals, the jugal is often called the malar or Zygomatic. It is connected to the quadratojugal and maxilla, as well as other bones, which may vary by species. This bone is considered key in the determination of general traits of the skull, in the case of creatures, as with dinosaurs in paleontology, whose entire skull has not been found[Wikipedia:Jugal_bone]. os zygomaticum malar bone zygomatic zygoma MFMO:0000146 os zygomaticus Wikipedia:Jugal_bone jugal bone cheek bone os zygomaticum orbit of skull dermatocranium facial bone irregular bone dermal bone skeletal element of eye region facial skeleton lateral structure preorbital bone region
