I have now consulted textbook of veterinary anatomy (Sisson and Grossman) and read the sections about skeletal osteology. There are no reports of accessory chevron bones in the caudal vertebral series. Are you sure that the extra bone in question associates with the tail vertebrae, or could it be from another source, like a fragment from elsewhere in the fossil?
