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

Phylogeny and Paleobiogeography of Hegetotheriidae (Mammalia, Notoungulata)
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 ...
