How to discern various Bison species?

[Jaybot]

I'm curious if anyone has any good papers or resources for identifying bones such as vertebrae or teeth between the various Bison species.

Here on TFF, I have seen the paper that @Harry Pristis has linked in other threads, which helps in identifying the skulls... but how can I identify other bones?

How do online merchants, and other papers know that the specimen they are displaying is Bison priscus for example?  I'm sure there is a paper somewhere, but I can't find anything.

I'm hoping some of the experts here can refer me to some handy reference material 

 

Thanks in advance.

I believe size is the determinant factor, as it is difficult too tell either from a cow.

Thanks to a fellow member on TFF that recommended it, I use this paper that has been extremely beneficial to me.  I now don't have problems determining Bos vs Bison.

Maybe I'm asking too much with attempting to determine id's between priscus, antiquus, bison, etc.
