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 ...

Paleopathology of a putative colossosaurian caudal vertebra (Neosauropoda: Titanosauria) from the Presidente Prudente Formation, Brazil

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Studies investigating paleopathologies in sauropods remain scarce despite their relative abundance in the fossil record. In this study we report new occurrence of paleopathological features, corresponding to a neoplasm found in a middle caudal vertebra (MCT.R.2120) of an advanced titanosaur from the Presidente Prudente Formation (Bauru Basin ...

Dental anomalies in Pleistocene African hippopotamuses from Olduvai Bed II

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Hippopotamuses are key palaeoenvironmental indicators in African Pleistocene ecosystems due to their ecological dependence on permanent water bodies and their frequent representation in the fossil record. This study examines dental anomalies in Hippopotamus cf. gorgops from several localities in Bed II of Olduvai Gorge (Tanzania), dated to ca.

Description of the skull, braincase, and dentition of Moschognathus whaitsi (Dinocephalia, Tapinocephalia), and its palaeobiological and behavioral implications

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 7, Page 1713-1748, July 2026.
Abstract A subadult Moschognathus whaitsi from the Eastern Cape Province, South Africa, was scanned using synchrotron radiation X‐ray computed tomography (SRXCT). Its subadult state allowed the cranial bones and teeth to be identified and individually reconstructed in 3D.

Multidisciplinary Exploration of Computed‐Tomographic and Ancient‐DNA Data of an Iron Age Skull From Latvia With Multiple Lytic Bone Lesions: Differential Diagnosis Between Metastatic Carcinoma, Multiple Myeloma and Skeletal Tuberculosis

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
In this study we used a combined computed tomographic and archaeogenetic approach to analyse a skull and vertebra with lytic lesions from a disturbed grave in the Čunkāni‐Dreņģeri cemetery in Latvia, dated to 10th century CE. Both methodologies were used to evaluate a proposed differential diagnosis of multiple myeloma, metastatic carcinoma and bone ...
