Auditory region circulation in Lagomorpha: the internal carotid artery pattern revisited. [PDF]
The internal carotid artery (ICA) is one of the major vessels in the cranial circulation. Characters concerning the ICA, such as its course in the auditory region, have been employed frequently in phylogenetic analyses of mammals, including extinct taxa.

Lagomorpha as a Model Morphological System [PDF]
Due to their global distribution, invasive history, and unique characteristics, European rabbits are recognizable almost anywhere on our planet. Although they are members of a much larger group of living and extinct mammals [Mammalia, Lagomorpha (rabbits,

Molecular time estimates for the Lagomorpha diversification. [PDF]
Despite their importance as members of the Glires group, lagomorph diversification processes have seldom been studied using molecular data. Notably, only a few phylogenetic studies have included most of the examined lagomorph lineages.

A propaedeutic to the taxonomy of the Eastern cottontail rabbit (Lagomorpha: Leporidae: Sylvilagus floridanus) from Central America [PDF]
To ascertain the taxonomic identity of cottontail rabbits from Costa Rica, we examined the holotypes of all the taxa of Sylvilagus currently subsumed within the Sylvilagus floridanus species complex as defined by Philip Hershkovitz.

Does fast running limit numerical variability of the vertebral column in rabbits and hares (Leporidae: Lagomorpha)? [PDF]
In mammalian vertebral columns, locomotive ability is expected to be an evolutionary driver of variation in the number of vertebrae; in species evolved to run fast or have a flexible vertebral column, they generally have limited numerical variation and ...

Late Pleistocene and Holocene pikas (Mammalia, Lagomorpha) from Europe and the validity of Ochotona spelaea: New insights based on mtDNA analysis [PDF]
Pikas were among small mammals that inhabited mammoth steppes during the last glacial. The evolutionary history of ochotonids in Europe is relatively well studied, although the taxonomic status of many described forms remains ...

Amphilagus plicadentis (Lagomorpha, Mammalia) from the Tagay locality (Olkhon Island, Baikal region, Eastern Siberia). [PDF]
New excavations in the Tagay locality have revealed the presence of Amphilagus plicadentis Erbajeva, 2013, which belongs to the palaeolagine Lagomorpha rather than leporids, previously referred to Procaprolagus sp. (Logachev et al., 1964).
