Convergent allometric trajectories in Devonian Carboniferous unornamented Polygnathus conodonts [PDF]
Acta Palaeontologica PolonicaThe shape of feeding structures is reputed to be under functional constraints related to the processing of food particles. Their morphological variation through evolution and ontogeny may thus provide an insight into changes in occlu sal dynamics and ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Actinopterygii is a major extant vertebrate group, but limited data are available for its earliest members. Here we investigate the morphology of Devonian actinopterygians, focusing on the lower jaw. We use X‐ray computed tomography (XCT) to provide comprehensive descriptions of the mandibles of 19 species, which span the whole of the Devonian
