Functional Morphology of the Scaphoid in Extant African Apes, Humans and Fossil Hominins. [PDF]
Am J Biol AnthropolABSTRACT Objectives The morphology of the hominoid scaphoid has played a key role in functional and evolutionary hypotheses related to the emergence of hominin bipedalism and tool use. However, the scaphoid's complex morphology is challenging to comparatively analyze via traditional 2D linear measurements.

Applications in Plant Sciences, Volume 11, Issue 5, September-October 2023., 2023 Abstract Premise Imaging technologies that capture three‐dimensional (3D) variation in floral morphology at micro‐ and nano‐resolutions are increasingly accessible. In herkogamous flowers, such as those of Theobroma cacao, structural barriers between anthers and stigmas represent bottlenecks that restrict pollinator size and access to reproductive ...

Skeletal age during hurricane impacts fluctuating asymmetry in Cayo Santiago rhesus macaques
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2023., 2023 Fluctuating asymmetry (FA), or random deviations from symmetry, can be used as a proxy for developmental instability, and anthropogenic and natural disruptions have been associated with increased levels of FA. In this study, we investigate the effect of demographic variables (age, sex, and decade of birth) and hurricane experience on FA in a model ...

Constructing a multiple‐part morphospace using a multiblock method
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 1, Page 65-76, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Popular current methods for quantifying variation in biological shape are well‐suited to analyses of isolated parts (e.g. the same bone from the skeletons of many individuals). An analytical challenge exists for quantifying variation between the shapes of multiple‐part objects where each part has a different position, rotation or scale (e.g ...
