In tetrapods, the tarsus is a cluster of seven articulating bones in each foot situated between the lower end of tibia and fibula of the lower leg and the metatarsus.The tarsus articulates with the bones of the metatarsus, which in turn articulate with the proximal phalanges of the toes.The joint between the tibia and fibula above and the tarsus below is referred to as the ankle joint.n birds, the tarsus has disappeared, with the proximal tarsals having fused with the tibia, the centralia having disappeared, and the distal bones having fused with the metatarsals to form a single tarsometatarsus bone, effectively giving the leg a third segment.
