Postcranial anatomy of the Miocene hippopotamoids of Toros‐Menalla, Chad

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We establish a framework for the identification of postcranial remains in hippopotamoids by describing and comparing for the first time two late Miocene hippopotamoids from Toros‐Menalla, Chad (Hexaprotodon garyam, an early hippopotamid, and Libycosaurus bahri, the last African anthracothere) with the common hippopotamus.

Functional morphology of trabecular bone in the calcaneus of African apes

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Pan exhibits significantly higher calcaneal tuberosity trabecular thickness (Tb.Th) and bone volume fraction (BV/TV) than Gorilla, potentially reflecting higher triceps surae forces for vertical climbing. Both taxa have significantly higher Tb.Th and BV/TV in the anterior calcaneus; the difference is exaggerated in Gorilla, potentially reflecting ...

Allometric patterns in Rhamphorhynchus muensteri and their role in the paleoecology, life habits, and taxonomic framework of pterosaurs

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The Graphical Abstract ilustrates the different allometric pattern within different Pterosauria groups, highlighting how the allometry influences the flight and habits of Pterosauria. Abstract Pterosaurs were the first vertebrates to achieve powered flight, a result of various unique anatomical adaptations, and significant morphological diversity ...
