Ospreys lock Alun Wyn Jones has joined Wales's Six Nations squad ahead of their clash against Italy in Rome on February 23.
The 27-year-old, who returned to action in his side's RaboDirect PRO12 win at Ulster on Friday, will look to add to his 67 caps as Wales attempt to retain their Six Nations crown.
Jones made his regional debut for the Ospreys in 2005 and was selected to tour with his country at the end of that particular campaign.
However, second-rows Bradley Davies and Luke Charteris are expected to miss the entire Six Nations campaign through injury.
