Summary:The use of diagnostic traits along with other approaches (e.g., osteometric studies, bone fusion schedule), will allow investigating particular aspects of the fossil record of these animals. From a sample of 24 modern adult individuals, earlier proposed criteria were reviewed, and as a result, a new list of 36 diagnostic traits for postcranial skeleton bones is presented. En J. Todd, J.
