The cranial, mandibular, and hyoid anatomy of softshell turtles (Trionychidae): A revised character list for phylogenetic analysis

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Softshell turtles (Pan‐Trionychidae) are an early branching clade of hidden‐necked turtles (Cryptodira) with a rich fossil record extending back to the Early Cretaceous. The evolutionary history of softshell turtles is still unresolved because of their conservative morphology combined with high levels of polymorphism related to morphological ...

The skeleton of the green Iguana iguana (Squamata: Iguanidae) and its intraspecific morphological variation

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The green iguana (Iguana iguana) is an iguanine lizard with herbivorous and arboreal habits, whose distribution spans through South America, Central America to the south of North America. Although the genus Iguana is well‐known, the species still lacks a comprehensive and up‐to‐date anatomical study, particularly addressing the axial skeleton,

Growth dynamics, skeletochronology, and histovariability of the theropod dinosaur Berthasaura leopoldinae

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Osteohistological sampling on different bones of theropod dinosaur documents discrepant age record, growth, and metabolism. This could result unprecise paleobiological inferences if samplings are based on single bones. However, multi‐bone sampling can attenuate these discrepancies, helping to infer growth dynamics and physiology of these extinct ...

Dental crown morphological variation and heterodonty in carcharhiniform sharks

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Elasmobranch teeth are highly mineralized structures that constitute the majority of the fossil record for this group. Despite their taxonomic and evolutionary significance, detailed descriptions of dental morphology remain scarce. The order Carcharhiniformes, the most diverse among sharks, comprises 304 valid species that display remarkable ...

Masculinização de larvas de tilápia do Nilo (Oreochromis niloticus L.) a partir de banhos de imersão com 17alfa-metiltestosterona Masculinization of larvae of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus L.) by immersion baths with alpha-methyltestosterone

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2005
Determinaram-se os períodos ontogênicos de maior sensibilidade das larvas de tilápias do Nilo (Oreochromis niloticus) à masculinização, com 17 alfa-metiltestosterona (MT), a partir de banhos de imersão, contendo 2,0 mg MT.L-1, por 36 horas, em um ...

An osteohistological analysis of Triceratops (Ornithischia: Ceratopsidae) cranial ornamentation

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Ceratopsids are among the most distinctive and well known extinct Cretaceous vertebrates, yet many details regarding the growth and composition of their cranial features are still not fully anatomically described or understood. In particular, striking cranial adornments such as the postorbital horns and parietal‐squamosal frill of Triceratops ...

An unusual titanosaur axis from the Upper Cretaceous of Brazil and its significance for sauropod anatomy and systematics

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Upper Cretaceous São José do Rio Preto Formation (Bauru Group, southeastern Brazil) has yielded a fragmentary but taxonomically diverse record of titanosaur sauropods, although elements from cervical series remain scarce. Here, we describe a nearly complete sauropod axis from the Vila Ventura Paleontological Area, representing an uncommon ...

Development of neuropeptide Y-ergic innervation of the small intestine in rats

open access: yesУчёные записки Казанского университета: Серия Естественные науки, 2018
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) acts as a neurotransmitter in the autonomic nervous system, including in the metasympathetic intramural ganglia of the intestine.

Morphometric analysis of postnatal lung development in the gray short‐tailed opossum (Monodelphis domestica): An ultrastructural study

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract An ultrastructural morphometric analysis of the postnatal development of the lung in the gray short‐tailed opossum (Monodelphis domestica) has been conducted to evaluate the morphofunctional status of this poorly developed marsupial lung immediately following parturition.
