Recently, dental wear studies in mammals have emerged as valuable proxies for
documenting the existence of geographical and/or temporal variability in diet and …

Microwear data were analysed to study dietary traits in Elephantidae, Mammutidae, and
Gomphotheriidae from Plio-Pleistocene localities from Europe and North America and …

Homunculus patagonicus is a stem platyrrhine from the late Early Miocene, high-latitude
Santa Cruz Formation, Argentina. Its distribution lies farther south than any extant platyrrhine …

In this study, ecomorphological techniques, based primarily on the implications of body size
and mastication, are used to model dental functional diversity of an earliest Tertiary …

Objectives The disappearance of the North American plesiadapoids (stem primates, or
plesiadapiforms) in the latest Paleocene has been attributed to competition with rodents …

Sloths, like other xenarthrans, are an extremely interesting group of mammals that, after a
long history of evolution and diversification in South America, became established on …

We analyse mesowear, microwear, and dental calculus for end-Pleistocene Mammut and
Mammuthus from North America, and modern Loxodonta africana to reconstruct diet. These …

The dietary adaptations of fossil taxa can be inferred through comparative morphological
studies of extant taxa. The goal of this dissertation is to augment the existing quantitative …

Understanding the paleoecology of extinct xenarthrans, such as ground sloths, is
complicated because they lack living analogues. Previous studies have applied functional …

The paleodietary ecology of Late Pleistocene ungulate faunas of the Mammoth Steppe
ecosystem was investigated at Fairbanks (Alaska) and Brown Bank (North Sea) through …
