The braincase and inner ear of ‘Metriorhynchus’ cf. ‘M.’ brachyrhynchus–implications for aquatic sensory adaptations in crocodylomorphs
(Society of Vertebrate Paleontology, 2021-06)
During their long evolutionary history crocodylomorphs achieved a great diversity of body sizes, ecomorphotypes and inferred feeding ecologies. One unique group of crocodylomorphs are the thalattosuchians, which lived ...
Phylogenetic and functional implications of the ear region anatomy of Glossotherium robustum (Xenarthra, Mylodontidae) from the Late Pleistocene of Argentina
(Springer, 2018-04)
Several detailed studies of the external morphology of the ear region in extinct sloths have been published in the past few decades, and this anatomical region has proved extremely helpful in elucidating the phylogenetic ...
Inner ear sensory system changes as extinct crocodylomorphs transitioned from land to water
(National Academy of Sciences, 2020-05)
Major evolutionary transitions, in which animals develop new body plans and adapt to dramatically new habitats and lifestyles, have punctuated the history of life. The origin of cetaceans from land-living mammals is among ...
Anatomia macroscópica e ultraestrutural da orelha da paca (Cuniculus paca, Linnaeus, 1766)
(Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), 2013-01-25)
A paca (Cuniculus paca), um dos maiores roedores da fauna brasileira, possui características inerentes à sua espécie que podem contribuir como uma nova opção de animal experimental; assim, considerando-se que há crescente ...
Does Inner and Middle Ear Morphology Link to an Aquatic Adaptation in Crocodylomorphs (Crocodylomorpha: Thalattosuchia)?
(Wiley, 2019)
Bony labyrinth morphology and tympanic air spaces provide powerful proxies for ecological adaptations in vertebrates. The labyrinth is responsible for the sense of hearing, and balance and equilibrium. Semicircular canal ...
