Hipparion tracks and horses' toes: the evolution of the equid single hoof [PDF]
The traditional story of the evolution of the horse (family Equidae) has been in large part about the evolution of their feet. How did modern horses come to have a single toe (digit III), with the hoof bearing a characteristic V-shaped keratinous frog on

Life-history traits of the Miocene Hipparion concudense (Spain) inferred from bone histological structure. [PDF]
Histological analyses of fossil bones have provided clues on the growth patterns and life history traits of several extinct vertebrates that would be unavailable for classical morphological studies.

Perissodactyl diversities and responses to climate changes as reflected by dental homogeneity during the Cenozoic in Asia. [PDF]
Three patterns of premolar molarization play an important role in perissodactyl diversity coupled with global climate change during the Cenozoic in Asia. In addition, the hypothesis of the “Ulan Gochu Decline” is proposed to designate the most conspicuous decrease of perissodactyl diversity that occurred in the latest middle Eocene rather than at the ...

Influence of Wine Label Imagery: Eye-Tracking Evidence and Regulatory Implications. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Introduction The visual design of alcohol beverage packaging plays a crucial role in shaping consumer perceptions and purchase decisions, yet regulations in many countries are relatively lax. Guidelines often focus on the inclusion of health warnings rather than overall label or packaging design, giving producers considerable freedom.

Three-dimensional geometric morphometric analyses of humerus ecomorphology: New perspectives for paleohabitat reconstruction in carnivorans and ungulates. [PDF]
Abstract Long bone ecomorphology has proven effective for paleohabitat reconstructions across a wide range of mammalian clades. Still, there is no comprehensive framework to allow interpretation of long bone morphological variation within and between different monophyletic groups.

An Empirical Shear Model of Interface Between the Loess and Hipparion Red Clay in a Loess Landslide
Quaternary loess is widely distributed over the tertiary Hipparion red clay on the Loess Plateau of China. Large-scale loess landslides often occur along the weak contact interface between these two sediment materials. To investigate the failure mode and
