Abstract

This description of a partial postcranial skeleton of a mature individual of Milleretta rubidgei shows that it has very broad (laterally expanded) ribs, and growth of limb bones had ceased. Previously the only described postcranial skeleton was that of a young individual in which the ribs are not as broad and the ends of the limb bones were still formed of cartilage.
