Murmur Tudor ruler gets components for arms (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

humeri

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'components for arms' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.

'murmur tudor ruler gets' is the wordplay.
'murmur tudor' becomes 'humi' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'ruler' becomes 'ER' (short for Elizabeth Regina ie Queen Elizabeth).
'gets' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'humi' enclosing 'er' is 'HUMERI'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for humeri that I've seen before include "Components of arms" , "Bones in upper arm from shoulder to elbow" , "Bones form shoulder to elbow" , "Bones from shoulder to elbow, in Latin plural" , "Upper-arm bones" .)
