A proxy for brain‐to‐endocranial cavity index in non‐neornithean dinosaurs and other extinct archosaurs

Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 532, Issue 3, March 2024.
Illustration of the endocranial doming, which can provide a proxy for the brain‐to‐endocranial cavity index, using the endocast of an adult of the iguanodont dinosaur Proa valdearinnoensis as an example. Abstract Although the brain fills nearly the entire cranial cavity in birds, it can occupy a small portion of it in crocodilians.

Nuclear parcellation and numbers of orexinergic neurons in five species of larger brained birds

Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 532, Issue 3, March 2024.
Immunohistochemical staining for orexin‐A reveals the orexinergic neuronal population in the hypothalamus of the Congo gray parrot. The arrangement of orexinergic neurons in the avian hypothalamus shows distinct conservation across avian species, unlike the variance noted in mammals. Abstract The orexinergic/hypocretinergic system, while having several

Dynamic changes in ocular shape during human development and its implications for retina fovea formation

BioEssays, Volume 46, Issue 1, January 2024.
We propose that fovea formation involves dynamic and asymmetric changes in ocular shape in humans and other species with foveated eyes. Abstract The human fovea is known for its distinctive pit‐like appearance, which results from the displacement of retinal layers superficial to the photoreceptors cells.
