On the development of the chondrocranium and the histological anatomy of the head in perinatal stages of marsupial mammals [PDF]
, 2017 An overview of the literature on the chondrocranium of marsupial mammals reveals a relative conservatism in shape and structures. We document the histological cranial anatomy of individuals representing Monodelphis domestica, Dromiciops gliroides ...

FUNCTIONAL AND EVOLUTIONARY ASPECTS OF THE POSTCRANIAL ANATOMY OF DICYNODONTS (SYNAPSIDA, THERAPSIDA) [PDF]
Palaeontology, 2006 Abstract: Restoration of the major skeletal muscles and functional morphological analysis of the postcranium were carried out on two Triassic dicynodont genera, Wadiasaurus and Lystrosaurus. A phylogenetic analysis of 12 selected Permian and Triassic dicynodont taxa was conducted and the postcranial character states were then mapped onto the most ...

Eunotosaurus africanus and the Gondwanan ancestry of anapsid reptiles [PDF]
, 2000 Phylogenetic analyses confirm that the turtle-like Late Permian reptile Eunotosaurus africanus is a parareptile (sensu deBraga & Reisz 1996) and identify it as the sister taxon of Procolophonomorpha. The tree topology for anapsid reptiles suggests that a

American Museum Novitates, 2017 ABSTRACT Two new genera and species of Tritylodontidae, Shartegodon altai and Nuurtherium baruunensis, are described and compared with other known tritylodontids. The new taxa are represented by two partial skulls and, in the case of Nuurtherium, postcranial elements. They were collected from the lower part of the Ulan Malgait Sequence (Upper Jurassic)
