3D finite element analysis and geometric morphometrics of sloths (Xenarthra, Folivora) mandibles show insights on the dietary specializations of fossil taxa
Sloths are represented today only by two distantly-related small, arboreal, and folivorous
genera. However, the fossil record of the clade is composed of many more taxa, with much …
