Statistical support for the hypothesis of developmental constraint in marsupial skull evolution
CV Bennett, A Goswami - BMC biology, 2013 - Springer
Background In contrast to placental neonates, in which all cranial bones are ossified,
marsupial young have only the bones of the oral region and the exoccipital ossified at birth …

Flexible conservatism in the skull modularity of convergently evolved myrmecophagous placental mammals
Background The skull of placental mammals constitutes one of the best studied systems for
phenotypic modularity. Several studies have found strong evidence for the conserved …

Are more diverse parts of the mammalian skull more labile?
M Linde‐Medina, JC Boughner… - Ecology and …, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
Morphological variation is unevenly distributed within the mammalian skull; some of its parts
have diversified more than others. It is commonly thought that this pattern of variation is …

The soft explosive model of placental mammal evolution
MJ Phillips, C Fruciano - BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2018 - Springer

Heterochronic shifts and conserved embryonic shape underlie crocodylian craniofacial disparity and convergence
The distinctive anatomy of the crocodylian skull is intimately linked with dietary ecology,
resulting in repeated convergence on blunt-and slender-snouted ecomorphs. These …

Strong morphological support for the molecular evolutionary tree of placental mammals
The emerging molecular evolutionary tree for placental mammals differs greatly from
morphological trees, leading to repeated suggestions that morphology is uninformative at …
