Hola de nuevo,
En el mismo estudio sobre lobos marinos:
Restos óseos de ejemplares de esta especie serán identificados en depósitos arqueológicos precolombinos (conchales) ubicados en el área del gap.
Según yo, la traducción era osseous remains pero encontré esta otra opcion: bony rest.
Los expertos en esta área ¿qué dicen? ¿cuál es la más adecuada?
Gracias miles.

No me suena muy ortotodoxo "bony rests".
Pero NO soy experto
También he encontrado "bone remnants".
Suerte.

Note from asker:
| Hi D.A., thanks for the answer, though I wonder whether skeletal remains is used for people rather than animals. I checked the term and I only found it related to human beings. |
