Finite element and microstructural analyses indicate that pteraspid heterostracan oral plate microstructure was adapted to a mechanical function
Early vertebrate evolution has been characterized as a gradual shift from passive to more
active feeding modes. However, this evolutionary scenario is contingent on poorly …

The three-dimensionally articulated oral apparatus of a Devonian heterostracan sheds light on feeding in Palaeozoic jawless fishes
Attempts to explain the origin and diversification of vertebrates have commonly invoked the
evolution of feeding ecology, contrasting the passive suspension feeding of invertebrate …
