Bite force estimates and morphological correlations of jaw muscles in parrots

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Parrots (Order: Psittaciformes) are renowned for their high bite force (BF) and morphological correlates thereof, including a highly mobile skull and two unique mandibular adductor muscles—m. pseudomasseter and m. ethmomandibularis, with the former being hypothesized to increase force output.

Anatomy and variation in the paraphyletic Mosasaurus lemonnieri assemblage from the Craie phosphatée de ciply, Belgium

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Nineteenth century excavations of the Ciply‐Malogne Phosphatic Chalk Formation in Hainaut, Belgium, yielded over 50 partial mosasaur skeletons, the majority of which were referred to the species Mosasaurus lemonnieri Dollo, 1889. In the years since, this taxon has experienced a complicated taxonomic history, and its exceptional hypodigm has ...

The Cutaneous Branch of the Obturator Nerve: Common Finding or a Rarity Worthy of Note

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT According to textbook descriptions, branches of the femoral and obturator nerves provide the sensory innervation to the medial side of the thigh. However, as the exact prevalence of the obturator nerve's cutaneous branch is unknown, an anatomic study was conducted to reveal its role in providing cutaneous innervation to the medial thigh ...

Grooved Surface of the Obturator Internus Muscle With Two Distinct Adjacent Parts

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The specific anatomical features of the obturator internus, particularly those of its medial surface, remain insufficiently characterized. This study investigated the morphology of the obturator internus muscle by focusing on the shape of its medial surface and potential age‐related changes.

Iliac Attachment of the Psoas Major Muscle: Anatomical Study of a Novel Muscle Attachment

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The iliopsoas muscle is important functionally and is often encountered during various surgical procedures. During routine cadaveric dissection, a previously undescribed muscular structure was located deep to the iliacus muscle and coursed inferomedially to merge with the posterior aspect of the psoas major, running over the iliopectineal ...

Orthodentine‐osteodentine and osteocytic‐anosteocytic transition inferred from Silurian stem chondrichthyan dermal jawbones with ever‐white teeth overgrown by brown denticles

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The dentigerous jawbones of a 423‐million‐year‐old stem chondrichthyan (ischnacanthid acanthodian) carry a characteristic combination of multi‐row non‐shedding white teeth with brownish overgrowing denticles. The color distinction makes it a good model for observing the interaction between two odontode lineages, but the nature of ...
