Carpals, Metacarpals and Phalanges
The radius and ulna are proximal to the carpal bones. The carpals are distal to the radius and ulna.
Metarcarpals
The group of bones of the wrist are the carpals, and of the ankles are the tarsals. Each of the carpals and tarsals has an individual name as well. The bones of the palm are the metacarpals, and the bones of the sole are the metatarsals. The finger bones and toe bones are both called phalanges.
