Heterodonty in the teeth of the turiasaurian sauropod from Angeac‐Charente (Early Cretaceous, southwestern France): Comparison of anatomical and geometric morphometric approaches

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Turiasaurian teeth from Angeac‐Charente exhibit five dental morphotypes and reveal clear heterodonty and anteroposterior size gradient. Qualitative comparative anatomy quickly and efficiently identifies morphotypes, while 3D geometric morphometrics combined with machine learning refine ambiguous cases, demonstrating that qualitative and quantitative ...
