title: Data from: Integrative approach uncovers new patterns of ecomorphological convergence in slow arboreal xenarthrans. 2021

description: <b>Online Resource 1.R</b>: code allowing to replicate all the steps of the statistical analysis. All the functions are applied, as example, on humeral data (starting from Online Resource 4.xls). The same steps can be applied to femoral data. The file also include the univariate version of convevol functions.<b>Online Resource 2.ijm</b>: modified version of the macro from Amson, 2019 (details in the text), allowing to automatically compute non-directional cross-sectional properties with a slice-by-slice approach on thresholded, purified and oriented CTstacks.<b>Online Resource 3.ijm</b>: Fiji macro allowing to extract a spherical Region of Interest (ROI) of trabecular bone from an articular joint, as detailed in the text and in the macro<b>Online Resource 4</b> and <b>Online Resource 5</b>: complete datasets and information for all analyzed humeri (Online Resource 4) and femora (Online Resource 5). For each, they include1. Catalogue number, collection and taxon2. CT scanning resolution3. Metric measurements taken on the proximal [<i>(HeadPDLen(mm), HeadMLLen(mm), HeadAPLen(mm)</i>] and distal [<i>CapPDLen(mm), CapMLLen(mm), CapAPLen(mm)</i> for the humeri; <i>LatConPDLen(mm), LatConMLLen(mm), LatConAPLen(mm) MedConPDLen(mm), MedConMLLen(mm), MedConAPLen(mm)</i> for the femora] epiphyses.4. Whether the specimen was discarded from 3D GM analysis, <i>DiscGM=1</i>5. Whether the specimen requested the process of correction for biased slices during the computation of CSP, <i>SliRemCSG=1</i>6. Whether the specimen was too filled with sediment or too damaged and the 50% level was not preserved, <i>DiscCSG=1</i>7. Whether extreme diaphyseal slices were biased, needing manual restoration to allow the data interpolation (as explained in the text), <i>ExtSliRest=1</i>8. Whether the specimen was too filled with sediment or too damaged but the 50% level was preserved and analyzed, <i>Only50=1</i>9. Whether the 50% level (preserved as in point 8) needed manual restoration to be analyzed, <i>Rest50=1</i>10. <i>DiscProxTrab</i> and <i>DiscDistTrab</i> for the humerus, are =1 if the extracted ROIs of trabecular bone were discarded for the proximal and/or distal epiphyses, respectively. <i>DiscProxTrab</i>, <i>DiscLatConTrab</i> and <i>DiscMedConTrab</i>, for the femur, are =1 if the extracted ROIs of trabecular bone were discarded for the proximal epiphysis, lateral condyle and/or medial condyle, respectively.11. <i>RestProxTrab</i> and <i>RestDistTrab</i> for the humerus, are =1 if the extracted ROIs of trabecular bone from the proximal and/or distal epiphyses, respectively, needed restoration in order to be analyzed. <i>RestProxTrab</i>, <i>RestLatConTrab</i> and <i>RestMedConTrab</i>, for the femur, are =1 if the extracted ROIs of trabecular bone from the proximal epiphysis, lateral condyle and/or medial condyle, respectively, needed restoration in order to be analyzed.12. Diameters of the extracted trabecular bone ROIs (<i>ROIproxDiam (mm) </i>and <i>ROIdistDiam (mm)</i> for the humerus; <i>ROIproxDiam (mm), ROILatConDiam (mm), ROIMedConDiam (mm)</i>; for the femur)13.
