Trunk movements during locomotion in the marsupial Monodelphis domestica (didelphidae) [PDF]
Journal of Morphology, 1992 AbstractThe small didelphid cmarsupial, Monodelphis domestica, uses a lateral sequence walk during slow treadmill locomotion and gradually shifts to a trot as speed increases. At higher speeds it changes abruptly to a half‐bound. Cinematographic records suggest significant lateral bending but no sagittal bending of the trunk during the slow walk and a ...

EVOLUTION OF SCAPULA SIZE AND SHAPE IN DIDELPHID MARSUPIALS (DIDELPHIMORPHIA: DIDELPHIDAE) [PDF]
Evolution, 2009 The New World family Didelphidae, the basal lineage within marsupials, is commonly viewed as morphologically conservative, yet includes aquatic, terrestrial, scansorial, and arboreal species. Here, I quantitatively estimated the existing variability in size and shape of the Didelphidae scapula (1076 specimens from 56 species) using geometric ...
