Segmental composition and nerve distribution of the brachial plexus in Galictis cuja

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Galictis cuja is a neotropical mustelid with terrestrial locomotor habits, yet the anatomy of its brachial plexus has remained undescribed. This study characterizes the origin, organization, and distribution of the brachial plexus nerves in 15 adult specimens (30 antimeres).

Different shape but the same topographical complexity—The lingual gross anatomy of the Saimaa (Pusa saimensis) and Baltic ringed seals (Pusa hispida botnica)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite the distinctly different shapes of their tongues, the tongue gross anatomy of Saimaa ringed seal closely resembled that of Baltic ringed seal. There were no differences in the extrinsic and intrinsic tongue muscles or their associated vascularization and innervation between Saimaa and Baltic ringed seals.

Cardiac morphological and morphometric analysis of Ardea alba

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Ardea alba (Linnaeus, 1758) is a widely distributed heron species whose cardiovascular morphology remains poorly described. This study aimed to characterize the cardiac morphology and morphometry of adult A. alba. Ten specimens were analyzed using radiographic, morphometric, histological, scanning electron microscopy, and three‐dimensional ...

Ecological correlates of the spatial co-occurrence of sympatric mammalian carnivores worldwide.

Ecology Letters, 2018
The composition of local mammalian carnivore communities has far-reaching effects on terrestrial ecosystems worldwide. To better understand how carnivore communities are structured, we analysed camera trap data for 108 087 trap days across 12 countries ...

Three‐dimensional digital analysis of musteloid masticatory muscle architecture

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Musteloids span an enormous breadth of dietary modes within a single superfamily. In this study, we utilize digital dissection techniques to reconstruct the internal 3D anatomy of muscles within the musteloid feeding apparatus, and explore how dietary specializations might alter the size, orientation, and curvature of fascicles therein.

Body mass variation in the Geoffroy's cat (Oncifelis geoffroyi) Variaciones de la masa corporal del gato montés (Oncifelis geoffroyi)

Revista Chilena de Historia Natural, 2006
We report new data on the intersexual and geographical variation in body mass of the Geoffroy's cat (Oncifelis geoffroyi d'Orbigny and Gervais 1844), a little known small cat from South America, and combine them with the existing information to compare ...

Postnatal craniomandibular growth in Harbor seals (Phoca vitulina vitulina)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Postnatal ontogeny in Harbor seals (Phoca vitulina vitulina). Cranium and mandible grow rapidly until 5 years of age, followed by a deceleration and finally a stagnation. Abstract As secondarily aquatic carnivores, seals display several phenotypic differences compared to their terrestrial relatives.
