The virtual brain endocast of Trogosus (Mammalia, Tillodontia) and its relevance in understanding the extinction of archaic placental mammals / Bertrand, Ornella C. (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont) ; Jiménez Lao, Marina (University of Edinburgh. School of GeoSciences) ; Shelley, Sarah L. (University of Edinburgh. School of GeoSciences) ; Wible, John (Carnegie Museum of Natural History. Section of Mammals) ; Williamson, Thomas E. (New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science) ; Meng, Jin (American Museum of Natural History. Division of Paleontology) ; Brusatte, Stephen L. (University of Edinburgh. School of GeoSciences)
After successfully diversifying during the Paleocene, the descendants of the first wave of mammals that survived the end-Cretaceous mass extinction waned throughout the Eocene. Competition with modern crown clades and intense climate fluctuations may have been part of the factors leading to the extinction of these archaic groups. [...]

26 p, 17.5 MB Neuroanatomy of the crocodylomorph Portugalosuchus azenhae from the late cretaceous of Portugal / Puértolas Pascual, Eduardo (Universidad de Zaragoza. Departamento de Ciencias de la Tierra. Aragosaurus-IUCA) ; Kuzmin, Ivan T. (Saint Petersburg State University. Department of Vertebrate Zoology) ; Serrano-Martínez, Alejandro (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont) ; Mateus, Octávio (Universidade Nova de Lisboa. Departamento de Ciências da Terra FCT)
We present the first detailed braincase anatomical description and neuroanatomical study of Portugalosuchus azenhae, from the Cenomanian (Late Cretaceous) of Portugal. This eusuchian crocodylomorph was originally described as a putative Crocodylia and one of the oldest representatives of this clade; however, its phylogenetic position remains controversial. [...]

6 p, 894.0 KB Exploring the relationship between soft and hard tissues : The example of vertebral arteries and transverse foramina / De Jager, Edwin (University of Cambridge. Department of Archaeology) ; Prigge, Lané (Sefako Makgatho Health Sciences University. Department of Anatomy) ; Amod, Nooreen (Dr George Mukhari Academic Hospital. Department of Radiology) ; Oettle, Anna (Sefako Makgatho Health Sciences University. Department of Anatomy) ; Beaudet, Amélie (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont)
Understanding how the brain is provided with glucose and oxygen is of particular interest in human evolutionary studies. In addition to the internal carotid arteries, vertebral arteries contribute significantly to the cerebral and cerebellar blood flow. [...]

63 p, 3.6 MB Descriptive osteology and patterns of limb loss of the European limbless skink Ophiomorus punctatissimus (Squamata, Scincidae) / Camaiti, Marco (Università di Torino. Dipartimento di Scienze della Terra) ; Villa, Andrea (Bayerische Staatssammlung für Paläontologie und Geologie) ; Wencker, Lukardis (Università di Torino. Dipartimento di Scienze della Terra) ; Bauer, Aaron M.. (Villanova University. Department of Biology (USA)) ; Stanley, Edward L. (Florida Museum of Natural History. Department of Herpetology) ; Delfino, Massimo (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont)
The limbless skink Ophiomorus punctatissimus is a cryptozoic species found in the Peloponnese region of Greece and on the Greek island Kythira. To provide the first thorough description of the cranial and postcranial osteology of this species, both disarticulated specimens and X-ray computed tomographies of wet-preserved specimens were examined in detail.
