Radula synthesis by three species of iron mineralizing molluscs: production rate and elemental demand [PDF]

, 2008
A cold-shock technique was used to determine radula production rates for the chitons Acanthopleura hirtosa and Plaxiphora albida, and for the limpet Patelloida alticostata, which replaced their radular teeth at rates of 0.40, 0.36 and 0.51 rows d-1 ...

Evolutionary radiation of large‐bodied gorgonopsians from the lower Abrahamskraal formation of South Africa

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The middle Permian represents a critical interval in therapsid evolution, when gorgonopsians emerged as some of the first specialized apex predators within terrestrial ecosystems. Despite their significance, the early diversification of Gorgonopsia in Gondwana remains poorly understood due to scarcity and fragmentary material.

Widespread distribution of large silesaurids evidenced by a new record from the Middle Triassic of southwest Gondwana

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
The largest silesaurid known from South America is described here, demonstrating that silesaurids reached large body sizes in southwestern Gondwana. This discovery further underscores the widespread geographic distribution and temporal persistence of large silesaurids across Pangea, despite faunal turnovers and environmental events such as the Carnian ...

Early stages of tooth development in the harbor porpoise Phocoena phocoena

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Here we describe the stages of tooth development in toothed whales on the basis of the harbor porpoise (Phocoena phocoena). The aim of the study was to find out whether these stages are identical to those of other mammals analyzed so far although toothed whales are homodont and monophyodont.

Comparison between surface-reading and cross-section methods using sagittal otolith for age determination of the marbled sole Pseudopleuronectes yokohamae [PDF]

, 2009
To find an appropriate method for age determination in the marbled sole Pseudopleuronectes yokohamae in Tokyo Bay, Japan, sagittal otoliths of 1,343 individuals were observed by surface-reading and cross-section methods and the results were compared ...
