An overview of the postcranial osteology of caecilians (Gymnophiona, Lissamphibia)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Caecilians comprise a relatively small (~220 species) group (Gymnophiona) of snake‐like or worm‐like, mostly tropical amphibians. Most adult caecilians are fossorial, although some species may live in aquatic or semi‐aquatic environments, either as larvae or adults.

The lower jaw of Devonian ray‐finned fishes (Actinopterygii): Anatomy, relationships, and functional morphology

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Actinopterygii is a major extant vertebrate group, but limited data are available for its earliest members. Here we investigate the morphology of Devonian actinopterygians, focusing on the lower jaw. We use X‐ray computed tomography (XCT) to provide comprehensive descriptions of the mandibles of 19 species, which span the whole of the Devonian

A proximodistal gradient in bone structure and mechanics in the wings of Seba's short‐tailed bat, Carollia perspicillata

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Bats possess the remarkable ability to fly, and with this, distinctive wing bone properties. We investigated the structural, mechanical, and compositional properties of the humerus, radius, metacarpals, and proximal and middle phalanges of Carollia perspicillata, an approximately 15 g fruit‐eating bat native to the Neotropics.

Distal femoral morphology as a risk factor for osteoarthritis

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Osteoarthritis (OA) is a leading cause of disability affecting millions of adults in the United States, commonly resulting in the need for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) to restore mobility and quality of life. This study investigates potential differences in baseline distal femoral shape between individuals who received TKA due to OA and a ...

Integrating mandibular evidence to assess morphological variation of the Australopithecus afarensis maxilla

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Geometric morphometric analyses are used to explore variation of maxillary dental arcades of Australopithecus afarensis, expanding on the work of Hanegraef and Spoor, 2025 (Morphological variation of the Australopithecus afarensis maxilla.
