Internal Morphology of Osteoderms of Extinct Armadillos and Its Relationship with Environmental Conditions
(Springer, 2017-07)
The most complete and continuous fossil record of armadillos is composed mostly by isolated osteoderms, frequently found in paleontological and archaeological sites that bear continental South American mammals. Their ...
The osteoderm microstructure in doswelliids and proterochampsids and its implications for palaeobiology of stem archosaurs
(Polish Academy of Sciences. Institute of Paleobiology, 2017-10)
Osteoderms are common in most archosauriform lineages, including basal forms, such as doswelliids and proterochampsids. In this survey, osteoderms of the doswelliids Doswellia kaltenbachi and Vancleavea campi, and ...
Exoskeleton and Systematics: A Historical Problem in the Classification of Glyptodonts
(Springer, 2012-09)
The glyptodonts (Mammalia: Cingulata) are characterized by an exoskeleton comprising most notably an armored tail and an immobile dorsal carapace formed by a large number of osteoderms. In 1889, Florentino Ameghino published ...
The osteoderms of baurusuchid crocodyliforms (Mesoeucrocodylia, Notosuchia)
(2019-03-04)
Baurusuchidae is a clade of terrestrial crocodyliforms that thrived during the Late Cretaceous in South America. The members of this clade occupied top-predator roles in their habitats. Knowledge about the anatomy, the ...
Morfología e histología de osteodermos de un Peirosauridae de la Cuenca NeuquinaMorphology and histology of osteoderms from a Peirosaurid from the Neuquen basin
(Asociación Paleontológica Argentina, 2013-02)
Se describen osteodermos de un nuevo ejemplar de crocodyliforme hallado en un afloramiento correspondiente a niveles de la Formación Plottier (Coniaciano tardío) de la localidad de Puesto Hernández, en inmediaciones de la ...
On the status of “Urotherium antiquum” (Ameghino) (Xenarthra, Glyptodontidae)À propos du statut de « Urotherium antiquum » (Ameghino) (Xenarthra, Glyptodontidae)
(Elsevier Masson, 2017-04)
Within the Late Neogene Glyptodontidae of the Pampean region of Argentina, “Urotherium antiquum” was described on the basis of some associated osteoderms of the dorsal carapace, which in addition include a partial skull ...
Palaeohistology and external microanatomy of rauisuchian osteoderms (Archosauria: Pseudosuchia)
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2011-11)
The presence of postcranial dermal armour is plesiomorphic for Archosauria. Here, we survey the external microanatomy and histology of postcranial osteoderms (i.e. dorsal paramedian and caudal osteoderms) of rauisuchians, ...
