The potential and pitfalls of using simple dental metrics to infer the diets of African antelopes (Mammalia: Bovidae) [PDF]
The use of mesowear to infer diets of extinct species is fast becoming widespread in palaeoecological studies. Nevertheless, traditional mesowear analyses suffer from a specimen number limitation, in that a minimum number of specimens identified to the ...

Climate-linked temporal and spatial patterns in the evolution of African bovidae [PDF]
Climate and subsequent environmental changes are regarded as one driver of species evolution. Against this background the present study investigates the evolutionary history of the mammalian family Bovidae (Cetartiodactyla, Mammalia), today the most ...

Dental Microwear Texture Analysis of Pliocene Bovids from Four Early Hominin Sites in Eastern Africa: Implications for Paleoenvironmental Dynamics and Human Evolution [PDF]
Many researchers have suggested that Plio-Pleistocene climate change was a motive force for human evolution. The basic idea was that a shift toward drier, more open settings, led to adaptations for bipedality and the consumption of savanna resources ...
