45 p, 44.9 MB Feeding strategies of circum-Mediterranean hipparionins during the late Miocene: Exploring dietary preferences related to size through dental microwear analysis / Orlandi Oliveras, Guillem 1992- (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont) ; Köhler, Meike (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont) ; Clavel, Julien (Université Claude Bernard Lyon) ; Scott, Robert S. (The State University of New Jersey. Department of Anthropology and Center for Human Evolutionary Studies) ; Mayda, Serdar (Ege University. Department of Biology) ; Kaya, Tanju ; Merceron, Gildas (University of Poitiers)
The adaptive radiation of hipparionins after their Old World dispersal was linked with a trend towards smaller body sizes. The appearance of the small-sized forms has usually been associated to open environments and grazing diets. [...]

15 p, 3.0 MB Quasi-homothetic transformation for comparing the mechanical performance of planar models in biological research / Marcé Nogué, Jordi (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya. Departament de Resistència de Materials i Estructures a l'Enginyeria) ; De Miguel, Daniel (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont) ; Fortuny, Josep (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont) ; De Esteban-Trivigno, Soledad (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont) ; Gil Espert, Lluís (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya. Departament de Resistència de Materials i Estructures a l'Enginyeria)
The potential of Finite Element Analysis (FEA) as an analytical technique in biological research has been widely highlighted in recent years. In spite of its great power, only in the best of circumstances one can compare the behaviour of models that differ in size and shape. [...]

7 p, 2.5 MB The use of the species concept in paleontology. Comment on "Nesiotites rafelinensis sp. nov., the earliest shrew (Mammalia, Soricidae) from the Balearic Islands, Spain" by Rofes et al., 2012 / Furió Bruno, Marc (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont) ; Pons-Monjo, Guillem (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont)
The earliest representative of Nesiotites from Caló d'en Rafelino (Mallorca) has been recently described as a new species (Nesiotites rafelinensis) based on a single hemimandible with p4-m3. A thorough inspection of large collections of different species of Nesiotites from the Balearic Islands reveals wide intraspecific morphological variation within these Plio-Pleistocene shrews. [...]

23 p, 1.3 MB Lizards and amphisbaenians (Reptilia, Squamata) from the late Eocene of Sossís (Catalonia, Spain) / Bolet, Arnau (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont) ; Evans, Susan E. (University College London. Department of Cell and Developmental Biology)
A new diverse late Eocene lizard and amphisbaenian assemblage from the classical mammal locality of Sossís (Catalonia, Spain) is described. It represents the first Paleogene lizard assemblage from Spain and the first late Eocene lizard locality from the Iberian Peninsula. [...]

13 p, 3.0 MB Determining the ontogenetic variation of lower cheek teeth occlusal surface patterns in lagomorphs using micro ct-technology / Angelone, Chiara (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont) ; Schultz, Julia A. (Universität Bonn. Steinmann-Institut für Geologie, Mineralogie und Paläontologie) ; Erbajeva, Margarita A. (Russian Academy of Sciences. Geological Institute, Siberian Branch)
Micro CT-scanning has been performed on the lower jaws of some selected lagomorph taxa in order to reconstruct unequivocally their controversial ontogenetic development. The analyses were concentrated on the development of p3, and on the sequences of lobe connections and on the sequence of appearance/disappearance of flexids/fossettes of p4-m2. [...]

14 p, 11.0 MB Coupling finite element analysis and multibody system dynamics for biological research / Marcé Nogué, Jordi (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont) ; Kłodowski, A. (Lappeenranta University of Technology. Department of Mechanical Engineering) ; Sánchez Romero, Montserrat (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya. Departament de Resistència de Materials i Estructures a l'Enginyeria) ; Gil Espert, Lluís (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya. Departament de Resistència de Materials i Estructures a l'Enginyeria)
Flexible Multibody System Dynamics (FMSD) is a simulation technique that can be used to study the behavior of the mechanical systems that consists of one or more deformable bodies. A deformable body can be modeled using a number of approaches while the floating frame of reference formulation is a widely used approach. [...]

17 p, 2.7 MB New dental material and redescription of Agerinia roselli (Primates, Adapiformes) from Les Saleres (early Eocene, NE Iberian Peninsula) / Femenias-Gual, Joan (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont) ; Minwer-Barakat Requena, Raef (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont) ; Marigó Cortés, Judit (Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle. Département Histoire de la Terre) ; Moyà Solà, Salvador (Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont)
In this work, new dental material of Agerinia roselli from its type locality, Les Saleres (NE Spain), is described. An emended diagnosis of the species is provided, together with a redescription of the entire hypodigm from that locality, which was necessary due to some inaccuracies in previous descriptions. [...]

Centre de Desenvolupament de Sensors, Instrumentació i Sistemes)
The process of separating small vertebrate fossils from sediment is a monotonous exercise, usually carried out manually and mainly based on morphological features. The large amount of time and personnel required results in the high economic costs associated with this antiquated technique. [...]
