Human Stature Estimation Using Cranial and Mandibular Measurements
Background: In forensic anthropology, estimating stature is an essential part of constructing the biological profile of unknown individuals. While long bones are typically used for this purpose, they are often missing or incomplete in forensic contexts ...

We reconstruct the major cranial musculature of the giant stem amphibian Mastodonsaurus giganteus, revealing a differentiated jaw‐adductor system, a probable sesamoid pulley, and previously unrecognised muscles. This EPB‐based case study establishes an anatomical framework for modelling feeding in early tetrapods and supports interpretations of ...

African ape carpal morphology is not too specialized to represent the ancestral hominin carpus
Knuckle walking is one hypothesized behavior of the Pan‐Homo last common ancestor. We analyzed carpal morphology, including Euclidean distances between behavioral pairs, to investigate whether the carpals of knuckle‐walking taxa appear relatively specialized.

Taking our pulse: the OCLC research survey of special collections and archives [PDF]
Special collections and archives are increasingly seen as element s of distinction that serve to differentiate a n academic or research library from its peers.

The adhesively competent toe pads of Gekko gecko (and other geckos) are delimited by a combination of external and deep anatomical features and cannot be identified based upon external scale form alone. We encourage future investigators to delimit toe pads in this functionally and anatomically meaningful fashion.

Whale swimming evolution recorded in vertebral microanatomy from the Eocene to present
Whale locomotion changed significantly from land‐living ancestors, via semi‐aquatic taxa, to today's fully aquatic species. The vertebral column is important for swimming, and this study focuses on the inner microanatomy of different vertebral regions.

ABSTRACT Loricariidae is the most diverse catfish family in the Neotropics. Within this group, the genus Spectracanthicus presents conflicting phylogenetic signals: morphological studies suggest monophyly, whereas previous molecular analyses often yield unresolved relationships and taxonomic uncertainty.

Digital range of motion analysis is sensitive to subjective steps in joint model construction
A systematic sensitivity analysis of a six degree‐of‐freedom range of motion (ROM) analysis workflow was conducted to evaluate how variation in the subjective steps of the reference pose assembly affects the determined viable poses in the ankle and tarsometatarsophalangeal III joints of Guinea fowl (Numida meleagris).
