Abstract The study of morphological evolution is fundamentally tied to ontogeny, yet studies of these heterochronic processes in the fossil record are rare. Fossils belonging to an ontogenetic series are difficult to assign to an ontogenetic stage due to inconsistent proxies for skeletal ages, challenging to taxonomically assign due to morphological ...

Skeletal pathologies in extant crocodilians as a window into the paleopathology of fossil archosaurs
Abstract Crocodilians, together with birds, are the only extant relatives to many extinct archosaur groups, making them highly important for interpreting paleopathological conditions in a phylogenetic disease bracketing model. Despite this, comprehensive data on osteopathologies in crocodilians remain scarce.

Correlation between the Acetabular Diameter and Thickness in Thais
We conducted a study on dried cadaveric pelvic bones to determine the relation between acetabular diameter and thickness of the acetabular wall. The acetabulum was divided into four quadrants: antero-superior, postero-superior, postero-inferior, and ...

Abstract The upper carbonate concretion levels of the Romualdo Formation (Aptian, Brazil) have yielded several theropod dinosaur remains, including spinosaurids and the coelurosaurs Santanaraptor placidus and Mirischia asymmetrica, the phylogenetic affinities of which are controversial.

Morphological variation in atlas and axis of Neotropical spiny rats (Rodentia, Echimyidae)
Abstract The unique morphologies of the first two cervical vertebrae, the atlas and axis, represent a significant innovation in mammalian evolution. These structures support the weight of the head and enable intricate movements of the head and neck.

SURGICAL COMPLICATIONS AFTER MODULAR ENDOPROSTHETICS IN PATIENTS WITH ACETABULAR TUMOR
There are various methods of restoring the integrity of the pelvic ring, after surgery in patients with tumor lesions of the pelvic bones, allowing to keep the limb with good oncological and functional results.

Abstract The ray‐finned fishes include one out of every two species of living vertebrates on Earth and have an abundant fossil record stretching 380 million years into the past. The division of systematic knowledge of ray‐finned fishes between paleontologists working on extinct animals and neontologists studying extant species has obscured the ...
