Gross Anatomical Studies on the Pelvic Girdle of African Grey Parrot (Psittacus erithacus)

Abstract
The pelvic girdle of African grey parrot was large and consisted of two os coxae, each of which was made up of an ilium, an ischium and a pubis. The acetabulum was formed by ilium, ischium and pubis. The ischium was triangular, narrow, elongated curved and slightly thick bony plate, situated ventral to the post acetabular part of ilium. The pubis was a thin which followed the ventral border of the ischium and projected slightly beyond it caudally and bent medially. The pectineal process was absent.
