## Unusual Measurement Recording

If a mammal or bird species and element combination is chosen for which there is no measurements table (see Mammal and Bird Measurements for a list of all default measurement tables), the 'Unusual Measurements Recording' form will be opened.

Bone ID
This field is transferred from the main recording form, and cannot be altered by the user.

Measurement
The user can type a measurement of up to ten alphanumeric characters in this field. This could be a description, or a reference to a von den Driesch measurement code.

Value
This field allows the user to record the numerical value of the measurement.

Notes
The notes field allows the user to record any further details relating to this measurement, including information about its significance, or an in-depth description of the measurement.

This form allows the user to record several unusual measurements for one specimen, or if several specimens are included under the one bone identification number, many measurements can be taken.
