  1. Mann–Whitney U test p-values comparing the associations between species of the dental eruption stage of the pisiform primary ossification (top panel, below diagonal), pisiform epiphysis ossification (top panel, above diagonal), and calcaneus epiphysis ossification (lower panel, above diagonal). Humans were included in both pisiform analyses
  2. * Denotes significant p values at the Bonferroni corrected α = 0.00238
