NEUROANATOMY OF THE TITANOSAUR SAUROPOD NARAMBUENATITAN PALOMOI FROM THE UPPER CRETACEOUS OF PATAGONIA, ARGENTINA

Publicación Electrónica de la Asociación Paleontológica Argentina, 2020
Narambuenatitan palomoi is a titanosaurian sauropod from the Upper Cretaceous of North Patagonia. Considered initially as a basal titanosaur, this taxon has uncertain phylogenetic relationships within the clade.

The DNH 7 endocast of Paranthropus robustus from Drimolen, South Africa: Reconsidering the functional significance of an enlarged occipital‐marginal (O/M) sinus system in robust australopithecines

American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 185, Issue 2, October 2024.
Abstract This paper presents a detailed analysis of the endocast of one of the most complete Paranthropus robustus crania known, DNH 7, from the Drimolen site (South Africa), and compares it with the morphology of other australopithecine endocasts. We focus on endocranial volume, the impressions of cortical sulci, cranial sutures, and the pattern of ...

A Look in to the Neurocranium of Living and Extinct Lepidosauria

, 2022
Braincase descriptions of lepidosaurian clades (Rhynchocephalia and Squamata) are scarce, and paleoneurological studies are even scarcer when compared to other reptiles.

Morphological evolution of the hominid brain

Academia Biology
A comparative analysis of the brain surfaces and endocasts of 35 hominid specimens including 24 operational taxonomic units was performed with the aim to search for morphological transformations of the brain surface that occurred over time ...

Urbanization, Bourgeois Culture, and the Institutionalization of the Frankfurt Neurological Institute by Ludwig Edinger (1855–1918)

Histories
Ludwig Edinger (1855–1918) is often perceived as a functional neuroanatomist who primarily followed traditional lines of microscopic research. That he was a rather fascinating innovator in the history of neurology at the turn from the nineteenth to the ...

Paleoneurology of the iguanodontian Fostoria dhimbangunmal from the mid-Cretaceous of Australia

Insights into the paleoneurology and endocranial anatomy of ornithopod dinosaurs come largely from Northern Hemisphere taxa. The recently described non-hadrosaurid iguanodontian Fostoria dhimbangunmal from the Cenomanian of eastern Australia includes a ...

New Insights into the Cranial Anatomy of Panoplosaurus mirus (Dinosauria: Nodosauridae) using Computed Tomography

, 2023
The holotype skull (CMN 2759) of the Late Cretaceous nodosaurid Panoplosaurus mirus Lambe 1919 is re-examined using computed tomography (CT) imaging, revealing important new information about the internal anatomy.

3D density maps: A powerful tool for studying sulcal imprint variation on extant human endocasts

, 2021
International audienceKey questions in paleoneurology concern the timing and emergence of derived cerebral features of modern humans. Endocasts (i.e., a replica of the internal table of the bony brain case) constitute a proxy for reconstructing a ...

Cranium of Sipalocyon externus (Metatheria, Sparassodonta) with remarks on the paleoneurology of hathliacynids and insights into the Early Miocene sparassodonts of Patagonia, Argentina

Swiss Journal of Palaeontology
In this contribution, we investigate two sparassodonts from the Sarmiento Formation (Colhuehuapian Age; Early Miocene) recovered at the Patagonian locality of Sacanana, Chubut Province, Argentina.
