Morphological variations of auditory bullae in otomyine rodents (Rodentia: Otomyini) in southern African biomes

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 285, Issue 2, February 2024.
Otomyine species that inhabit regions with low annual rainfall have larger bullar volumes, and more anterior‐facing meatuses. This pattern is also found within Myotomys unisulcatus, though bullar shape did not differ between regions. Abstract Mammalian middle ear cavities differ from those of other taxa as they comprise three ossicles and in rodents ...

Adaptation in brain structure and respiratory and olfactory structures across environmental gradients in African and North American muroid rodents

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 165-181, January 2024.
Based on 174 cranial 3D images, when considering allometric and phylogenetic constraints, muroid rodents showed potentially adaptive responses to aridity in the bulla, cochlea, paraflocculi, and olfactory lobes of the brain and to high elevation in endocranial volume and the respiratory turbinate bone of the nasal capsule. Abstract Morphometric studies
