Cranial ontogeny of Caluromys philander (Didelphidae, Caluromyinae): a qualitative and quantitative approach
(Alliance Communications Group Division Allen Press, 2010-06)
The ontogeny of skull allometry has been the subject of research in didelphid, microbiotheriid, and dasyurid marsupials. We described and compared postweaning stages of cranial development in the woolly opossum Caluromys ...
Postcranial Skeleton of Glironia venusta (Didelphimorphia, Didelphidae, Caluromyinae): Description and Functional Morphology
(Wiley VCH Verlag, 2009-09)
The postcranial skeleton of the neotropical living marsupial Glironia venusta is described and compared in a functional framework. Osteological and myological characters of 19 species of living didelphids and some additional ...
Dental anomalies in Caluromys (Marsupialia, Didelphimorphia, Didelphidae, Caluromyinae) and a reassessment of malformations in New World marsupials (Didelphimorphia, Microbiotheria and Paucituberculata)
(De Gruyter, 2017-12)
Dental anomalies have been documented in almost all mammalian orders, and include supernumerary or missing teeth, teeth with aberrant occlusal surfaces and/or roots and teeth in unusual positions. Our objectives were the ...
Evolution of diet in extant marsupials: emergent patterns from a broad phylogenetic perspective
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-10)
Extant marsupials are highly diverse, both morphologically and ecologically. As a key ecological factor, diet has been studied in marsupials at the species level. However, a general lack of phylogenetic integration has ...
