1880 O. C. Marsh in Amer. Jrnl. Sci. 119 170 (note) The need of general designations to apply to the corresponding segments alike of the anterior and posterior limbs of the air-breathing vertebrates is evident. While we have the convenient terms ‘Phalanges’ and ‘Metapodials’ for the distal parts of the extremities, there are no names in use for the portions above. Hence, the following are suggested:..Mesopodial bones = Carpals, Tarsals.

1880 O. C. Marsh in Amer. Jrnl. Sci. 119 170 This bone has been gradually crowded out of its original position between the marginal bones of the second, or epipodial, series into the third, or mesopodial, where we now find it.
