A developmental model, based upon murine rodents, has been proposed by Kavanagh et al. (2007) to explain lower molar proportions in mammals. We produce a clade-wide macroevolutionary test of the model using the dental evolutionary trends in a unique ...

Teeth complexity, hypsodonty and body mass in Santacrucian (Early Miocene) notoungulates (Mammalia) [PDF]
Notoungulates, native South American fossil mammals, have been recently objective of several palaeoecological studies. Ecomorphology and biomechanics of the masticatory apparatus, together with micro and mesowear analyses on tooth enamel, were applied in

First digital cranial endocasts of late oligocene notohippidae (Notoungulata): implications for endemic south american ungulates brain evolution [PDF]
Notohippidae were middle-sized toxodonts recorded from the Eocene to the early Miocene. We provide the first description of the cranial endocasts of Rhynchippus equinus and Eurygenium latirostris based on three-dimensional reconstructions extracted from ...

Phylogenetic revision of the South American notopithecines (Mammalia: Notoungulata) [PDF]
A phylogenetic analysis of all Eocene taxa assigned to Notopithecinae has been conducted, evaluating relationships amongst notopithecines, basal interatheriids and Interatheriinae. Other groups of native ungulates were also included.

Testing a developmental model in the fossil record: molar proportions in South American ungulates
A developmental model, based upon murine rodents, has been proposed by Kavanagh et al. (2007) to explain lower molar proportions in mammals. We produce a clade-wide macroevolutionary test of the model using the dental evolutionary trends in a unique ...
