Protocols etc. of Elisabeth Woelfle's (1967) dissertation work

Pdfs of the protocols and notes on specimens related to the dissertation work by Elisabeth Woelfle (Woelfle, E. 1967. “Vergleichend Morphologische Untersuchungen an Einzelknochen des Postcraniale Skelettes in Mitteleuropa Vorkommender Enten, Halbgänse und Säger.” Diss. Munich). The data from the measuring protocols have also been transcribed, with minimal editing to preserve the integrity of the original records. In addition, the result of the identification work for all Woelfle's specimens is also presented. All these data were used in an re-assessment of Woelfle's foundational analysis of duck osteometry:
