Kotelosienet (pl. jäkälät)

Lajiluettelo, 2019
Kotelosienet (Ascomycota) on lajimäärällisesti sienten suurin ryhmä ja monet kotelosieniryhmät tunnetaan vielä hyvin huonosti. Tiedon taso verrattuna muihin sieniryhmiin on heikko. Maassamme on vielä suuri määrä tuntemattomia kotelosienilajeja. Vuoden 2020 lajiluettelon jälkeen luettelon nimistöön ja taksonomiaan on tehty paljon muutoksia (pääasiassa ...

Are there morpho‐acoustic patterns of adaptation in nonhuman primate ears? Testing the role of ecology and habitat in shaping ear morphology and function

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Analysis of the variation in the bony structures of the inner and middle ear provides critical insights into functional morphology, as well as adaptive morphology across primates. In this study, we investigated whether ear morphology patterns are related to the ecological characteristics of species and their habitats to test two acoustic ...

The revision of baphetids from the Middle Pennsylvanian of the Czech Republic: Morphology, ontogeny, palaeoecology, and the reassessment of the phylogeny of Baphetoidea

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The baphetoids represent a clade of the Carboniferous stem‐tetrapods (Middle Mississippian—Middle Pennsylvanian) with a characteristic extension of the orbits into antorbital vacuities, which formed keyhole‐shaped openings on the skull. The more derived baphetids were crocodile‐like piscivores frequently occurring in coal‐bearing lacustrine ...
