A New Simple Method for Age Determination of Harbour Porpoises (Phocoena phocoena)

Age determination of marine mammals is important for understanding the impact of anthropogenic disturbances as well as for population management. Toothed whales are usually age-determined by counting annually formed layers in their teeth. This includes a

Age determination and the importance of teeth in forensic odontology: A retrospective review

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ETHICS, TRAUMA & VICTIMOLOGY, 2017
Because of illegal immigrations, particularly after the so called Arab spring and the growing incidence of natural and man-made disasters which regrettably was very common in the last three to four decades, age determination has gained increasing importance in legal medicine.

Morphological plasticity in the dentition of the lungfish Gnathorhiza from the Permian of Brazil: A population‐level geometric morphometric analysis

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Dental plates are pivotal in the lungfish paleontological record, constituting highly mineralized structures resilient to diagenetic processes. This study provides a detailed description and quantitative shape analysis of 95 newly discovered Gnathorhiza sp. dental plates from the Middle–Late Permian Corumbataí Formation, Brazil.

Bioerosion traces in bones reveal an increase in ethological diversity in the insect exploitation of carcasses in the late Triassic

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract This study presents the first detailed description of bioerosion traces produced by insects in bones from the Santa Cruz Sequence (early Carnian, Santa Maria Supersequence, Brazil). An array of traces is reported, consisting of notches, a tube, trails of grooves attributed to the ichnotaxon Osteocallis mandibulus and ornamented depressions ...

Comparison of age determination techniques for known-age Cape fur seals [PDF]

, 2017
Known-age teeth were used to validate age determination techniques for the Cape fur seal (Arctocephalus pusillus pusillus). Thin sectioning and staining of decalcified teeth produced the poorest age estimates.

Taxonomic and anatomical comments on “Traversodon(?) major” von Huene, 1936 (Cynodontia) from the Middle Triassic of Brazil

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Traversodontids were diverse non‐mammaliaform cynodonts that occupied herbivorous and omnivorous niches during the Middle and Late Triassic. In Brazil, they are particularly well represented in the Santa Maria Supersequence, although the taxonomic status of some historically described taxa remains uncertain.

Accuracy of Age Estimation using Cameriere’s European Formula and London Atlas Method among the Children of Dakshina Kannada Population – A Comparative Study

Journal of Indian Academy of Oral Medicine and Radiology
Background: Accurate age estimation in children is crucial for forensic and clinical purposes. Cameriere’s method and the London Atlas method were established techniques for estimating dental age, but they were developed for populations with different ...
