Turbinals are bony or cartilaginous structures that are present in the nasal cavity of most
tetrapods. They are involved in key functions such as olfaction, heat, and moisture
conservation, as well as protection of the respiratory tract. Despite recent studies that
challenged long‐standing hypotheses about their physiological and genomic correlation,
turbinals remain largely unexplored, particularly for non‐mammalian species. Herein, we
review and synthesise the current knowledge of turbinals using an integrative approach that …
