On Prophoca and Leptophoca (Pinnipedia, Phocidae) from the Miocene of the North Atlantic realm : redescription, phylogenetic affinities and paleobiogeographic implications [PDF]
, 2016 Background: Prophoca and Leptophoca represent the oldest known genera of phocine seals, dating from the latest early to middle Miocene. Originally, Prophoca rousseaui and Prophoca proxima were described based on fragmentary remains from the Miocene of ...

Pleistocene hominins as a resource for carnivores. A c. 500,000-year-old human femur bearing tooth-marks in North Africa (Thomas Quarry I, Morocco) [PDF]
, 2016 In many Middle Pleistocene sites, the co-occurrence of hominins with carnivores, who both contributed to faunal accumulations, suggests competition for resources as well as for living spaces.

A study of nutrient foramina in dry adult radii of South Indian subjects
National Journal of Clinical Anatomy, 2014 Background : Vascular insults to the radius either during fracture dislocation or during surgical correction of fracture may result in delayed healing or non-union of fracture. It is useful to find the number, location and size of nutrient foramina.
