pelvic
Of the hipbones
Pelvic means relating to the pelvis, the bony structure at the base of the spine that supports the abdomen and connects to the legs.
The term appears in medical and anatomical contexts: pelvic bone, pelvic floor, pelvic exam.
Pelvic fins are the rear pair of fins on a fish, corresponding roughly to hind limbs in other vertebrates.
