Mammalian forelimb evolution is driven by uneven proximal-to-distal morphological diversity

open access: yeseLife, 2023
Vertebrate limb morphology often reflects the environment due to variation in locomotor requirements. However, proximal and distal limb segments may evolve differently from one another, reflecting an anatomical gradient of functional specialization that ...

Evidence for parallel development of ever-growing molars in Early Pleistocene rodents from southern Spain and their paleoenvironmental implications

open access: yesActa Palaeontologica Polonica, 2023
In this paper, we present a detailed survey on the rodent fauna from the site of Barranco de los Conejos (Guadix-Baza Basin, southern Spain). Its rodent fauna is composed of three arvicolines (Orcemys giberti, Manchenomys oswaldoreigi, and Tibericola ...

Phenomenon in the Evolution of Voles (Mammalia, Rodentia, Arvicolidae)

open access: yes, 2017
This paper presents analytical results of the study of adaptatiogenesis within the family Arvicolidae (Mammalia, Rodentia) based of morphological changes of the most functional characters of their masticatory apparatus — dental system — through time. The

Phylogeny and Paleobiogeography of Hegetotheriidae (Mammalia, Notoungulata)

open access: yesJournal of Vertebrate Paleontology, 2017
Hegetotheriidae are one of the most derived families of the Order Notoungulata. It is composed of two subfamilies: Hegetotheriinae, which resolves as paraphyletic in most recent phylogenies, and Pachyrukhinae, which historically is considered ...

Linajes fantasma y correlación con variables ecológicas: el caso de la Subfamilia Caprinae

open access: yesEstudios Geologicos, 2006
La integración de la sistemática filogenética con datos paleontológicos ha demostrado ser una eficaz metodología a la hora de estimar paleodiversidades mediante la identificación de periodos en la historia evolutiva de los clados sin representantes ...
