Abstract
The Labrador Duck has been extinct for almost 100 yr, the last specimen having been taken in 1878. The purpose of this paper is to describe the distal musculature of the wing and leg of the Labrador Duck. The unique history of a study skin of an adult male in the collections of the Smithsonian Institution [USA] gave an opportunity to do this.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
