phalanges

The intermediate and distal phalanges of the index finger show contraction, as if the Palestinian Arab were squeezing something.

No hylid genus is edentate, and none has either T-shaped terminal phalanges or the unusual dorsal spinules.

Thus the entire length of the four phalanges slightly exceeds 11 inches, or rather more than three times the length of the head.

There is volar flexion of the phalanges when the subject is at rest.
