Evolutionary radiation of large‐bodied gorgonopsians from the lower Abrahamskraal formation of South Africa

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The middle Permian represents a critical interval in therapsid evolution, when gorgonopsians emerged as some of the first specialized apex predators within terrestrial ecosystems. Despite their significance, the early diversification of Gorgonopsia in Gondwana remains poorly understood due to scarcity and fragmentary material.

Oldest well‐preserved euprimate petrosal, from the early Eocene of India (Vastan Lignite Mine, Gujarat)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract An exquisitely preserved, isolated partial petrosal with associated fragmentary stapes is described from the Vastan Lignite Mine (Gujarat, India), dated to the early Eocene (~54.5 Ma). Several anatomical traits (e.g., large petrosal plate; posterolateral entry of the internal carotid artery to the tympanic cavity; bony tubes surrounding the ...

Postcranial anatomy and osteohistology of an early prozostrodont cynodont from the Upper Triassic of Brazil

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Prozostrodon brasiliensis, a probainognathian cynodont of the clade Prozostrodontia, is recognized as a key taxon for understanding the origin of Mammaliaformes and mammals. Despite detailed investigations of its cranial anatomy, the postcranial skeleton has received comparatively less attention.

Predicting animal abundance through local ecological knowledge

Given the ongoing environmental degradation from local to global scales, it is fundamental to develop more efficient means of gathering data on species and ecosystems. Local ecological knowledge, in which local communities can consistently provide information on the status of animal species over time, has been shown to be effective.

Craniofacial growth, modeling, and estimation of milestones

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding craniofacial growth is foundational for research into intra‐ and interspecies variation, evolution, and clinical care. The Craniofacial Growth Consortium Study (CGCS), combines cephalographs from historical growth studies to create a dense longitudinal record of growth from 6 to 22 years of age.

Local variation in age‐related cortical expansion within and between cross‐sections of distal human long bones

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Cortical bone expansion is an age‐related process where, through endosteal resorption and periosteal apposition, cross‐sectional diameter increases while cortical thickness decreases in long bone diaphyses. Local variation has been observed in this process between cross‐sectional locations, but few studies have examined directional variation ...
