You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Starting at the shoulder and working outward:

Upper arm: humerus
Fore arm: radius and ulna
Wrist bones: carpels
Hand bones: metacarpels and phalanges

Here's the best I could find:

-- quote --
The forelimb consists of: Humerus, radius and ulna, carpals, metacarpals, digits or phalanges. The top of the humerus moves against (articulates with) the scapula at the shoulder joint. By changing the number, size and shape of the various bones, fore limbs have evolved to fit different ways of life. They have become wings for flying in birds and bats, flippers for swimming in whales, seals and porpoises, fast and efficient limbs for running in horses and arms and hands for holding and manipulating in primates
-- /quote --

Regards!

There is a pair of fore-limbs or upper limbs. Each fore-limb has 30 bones and three

parts – upper arm, lower or forearm and hand. Upper arm has only one bone, fore arm two bones while remaining 27 bones belong to hand. Humerus is the single long bone of upper arm. Its body is called shaft.

Upper or proximal end bears a round head. Below it is present a narrow neck and two tuberosities – greater tuberosity and lesser tuberosity. A deltoid tuberosity occurs over the shaft – Distal end of humerus has a pulley-like trochlea (attachment of ulna), convex capitulum (attachment to radius) and outgrowths or epicondyles.
