Abstract The complex constructions of land vertebrate skulls have inspired a number of functional analyses. In the present study, we provide a basic view on skull biomechanics and offer a framework for more general observations using advanced modeling approaches in the future.

En la presente tesina se plantea como hipótesis que las morfologías de los caninos e incisivos de los cinodontes gonfodontes (Synapsida, Cynognathia) descubiertos en América del Sur son más variadas que lo que se postuló hasta el momento.

Abstract The origin of cynodonts, the group ancestral to and including mammals, is one of the major outstanding problems in therapsid evolution. One of the most troubling aspects of the cynodont fossil record is the lengthy Permian ghost lineage between the latest possible divergence from its sister group Therocephalia and the first appearance of ...

A mammal and bird's‐eye‐view of the pupil during sleep and wakefulness
The pupil size of mammals and birds varies as a function of brain state during wakefulness and sleep; however, in an opposite way. This raises the possibility that state‐dependent changes in pupil size are a window into different brain processes in birds compared with mammals.

Forelimb Shape, Disparity, and Functional Morphology in the Deep Evolutionary History of Synapsida [PDF]
Mammals and their closest fossil relatives use their shoulders and forelimbs for many functions, which is reflected by the great range of mammalian forelimb shapes.
