Central nervous system of the crab Neohelice granulata: A neuroanatomical description
(Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 2020)
We present a study of the CNS of Neohelice granulata performed at both the neuronal cluster and the neuropil level, describing eyestalk ganglia, the thoracic ganglion, and the central brain, with special focus on the latter. ...
The middle ear of the pink fairy armadillo Chlamyphorus truncatus (Xenarthra, Cingulata, Chlamyphoridae): comparison with armadillo relatives using computed tomography
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-01)
The pink fairy armadillo Chlamyphorus truncatus is the smallest extant armadillo and one of the least‐known fossorial mammals. The aim of this study was to establish if its middle ear is specially adapted to the subterranean ...
Ontogenetic patterns of morphological variation in the ectocranial human vault
(Wiley-liss, Div John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2013-07)
The skull is considered a modular structure in which different parts are influenced by different factors and, as a result, achieve adult shape at different ages. Previous studies have suggested that the basicranium presents ...
Morphometric study of the mare oviductal mucosa at different reproductive stages
(Veterinary and Human Toxicology, 2015-11)
The objectives of this work were to describe some morphometric characteristics and to establish quantitative parameters of different regions of the equine oviductal mucosa from the isthmus, ampullary-isthmic junction (AIJ), ...
Heritability of human cranial dimensions: Comparing the evolvability of different cranial regions
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2009-12)
Quantitative craniometrical traits have been successfully incorporated into population genetic methods to provide insight into human population structure. However, little is known about the degree of genetic and non-genetic ...
Comparative study of prenatal development between myotis albescens (chiroptera: vespertilionidae) and eumops patagonicus (chiroptera: molossidae): the chorionic vesicle and extraembryonic membranes considerations
(Veterinary and Human Toxicology, 2018-09)
We presented a comparative study of two species of South American bats, Myotis albescens and Eumops patagonicus, about prenatal development. This study was carried out using 60 specimens, which were measured and photographed, ...
Tooth-On-Tooth Interlocking Occlusion Suggests Macrophagy in the Mesozoic Marine Crocodylomorph Dakosaurus
(Wiley-liss, Div John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2012-07)
Metriorhynchidae was a peculiar but long-lived group of marine Mesozoic crocodylomorphs adapted to a pelagic lifestyle. Recent discoveries show that metriorhynchids evolved a wide range of craniodental morphotypes and ...
Development of the chondrocranium of two caiman species, Caiman latirostris and Caiman yacare
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-06)
Little is known about the embryonic development and variation of the chondrocranium in Crocodylia and there are no works on any Caiman species. Due to the importance of cranial features in the systematics of this clade, ...
Integrating data on bone modeling and morphological ontogenetic changes of the maxilla in modern humans
(Elsevier Gmbh, Urban & Fischer Verlag, 2019-03)
The aim of this work is to assess the association between the patterns of bone modeling and the changes in shape and size of the maxilla along ontogeny in modern humans. The sample analyzed includes an ontogenetic series ...
3D geometry and quantitative variation of the cervico-thoracic region in crocodylia
(Wiley-liss, Div John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2014-05)
This study aims to interpret the axial patterning of the crocodylian neck, and to find a potential taxonomic signal that corresponds to vertebral position. Morphological variation in the cervico-thoracic vertebrae is ...
