The osteohistology of Orthosuchus stormbergi using synchrotron radiation microcomputed tomography
The osteohistology of Orthosuchus stormbergi is described for the first time. The primary bone tissue was lamellar bone. It had relatively thick bone walls, possibly indicating an aquatic lifestyle. Orthosuchus was a small bodied adult reaching a maximum body mass of about 1.2 kg.

The paucity of small, skeletally immature individuals representing the earliest ontogenetic stages of extinct archosaurs complicates our understanding of the growth dynamics within and between species. The opportune finding of the smallest phytosaur femora reveals slow growth, a surprising signal considering that larger phytosaurs in North America have

Osteohistology of the unusually fast‐growing theropod dinosaur Ceratosaurus
We report the histology of multiple elements attributed to four individuals of Ceratosaurus. We find that the histology and growth models corroborate previous reports of rapid tissue growth in the genus. Abstract Ceratosaurus is a large‐bodied non‐avian theropod dinosaur known from the Upper Jurassic Morrison Formation of North America and is ...
