Mandibular musculature constrains brain–endocast disparity between sarcopterygians
The transition from water to land by the earliest tetrapods in the Devonian Period is seen as one of the greatest steps in evolution. However, little is understood concerning changes in brain morphology over this transition.

Aestivation induces widespread transcriptional changes in the African lungfish
Aestivation is a special ability possessed by some animals to cope with hot and dry environments utilizing dormancy. At a macroscopic level, dormant animals stop moving and eating.

Heart and Circulation of the African Lungfish [PDF]
Cardiovascular structure and function were studied in the African lungfish, Protopterus aethiopicus , by a combination of anatomical and physiological techniques. Particular emphasis was placed on mechanisms which operate under natural conditions in which air-breathing alternates with water-breathing.

The cranial endocast of Dipnorhynchus sussmilchi (Sarcopterygii: Dipnoi) and the interrelationships of stem-group lungfishes [PDF]
The first virtual cranial endocast of a lungfish from the Early Devonian, Dipnorhynchus sussmilchi, is described. Dipnorhynchus, only the fourth Devonian lungfish for which a near complete cranial endocast is known, is a key taxon for clarifying ...

A diverse Late Cretaceous vertebrate tracksite from the Winton Formation of Queensland, Australia [PDF]
The Upper Cretaceous ‘upper’ Winton Formation of Queensland, Australia is world famous for hosting Dinosaur Stampede National Monument at Lark Quarry Conservation Park, a somewhat controversial tracksite that preserves thousands of tridactyl dinosaur ...
