Locomotor evolution in the earliest cetaceans: functional model, modern analogues, and paleontological evidence
JGM Thewissen, FE Fish - Paleobiology, 1997 - cambridge.org
We discuss a model for the origin of cetacean swimming that is based on hydrodynamic and
kinematic data of modern mammalian swimmers. The model suggests that modern otters …

Modified perichondral ossification and the evolution of paddle-like limbs in ichthyosaurs and plesiosaurs
MW Caldwell - Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology, 1997 - Taylor & Francis
Evolution of paddle-like limbs in ichthyosaurs and plesiosaurs is correlated with loss of
perichondral bone from the shafts of long bones. Among ichthyosaurs, loss of perichondral …
