a) Approximate measurement.APD=anteroposterior distance;PE=proximal end.

Patella A left patella is preserved,with the base being partially broken(Fig.4C–H;Table 1).The patella is roughly shield-shaped,considerably longer than wide,and somewhat anteroposteriorly compressed,as in Lophialetes.The base of patella in Deperetella thickened anteroposteriorly.The medial and lateral borders are straight and parallel to each other,whereas the distal border is composed of two lines convergent distally(Fig.4C).The articular surface occupies the whole posterior side,and is divided by a blunt ridge into two parts(Fig.4D–F):the medial one is wide,fl at or slightly concave transversely,andconvex proximodistally at the distal end,whereasthe lateral one is narrow,more concave transversely,and fl at proximodistally at the distal end.The angle between the two surface is about 90°in proximal view and less than 90°in distal view(Fig.4G,H).The base is raised above the articular surface and extended anteromedially(Fig.4D,G).The anterior surface is rugose and generally fl at with a slightly swollen tubercle just above the apex(Fig.4C).Along the distal half of the medial border there is a depressed area for the patellar ligament(Fig.4E),whereas the medial surface of the patella becomes wider and bears a more distinct depressed area in Deperetella.
