The current literature on marsupial phylogenetics includes numerous studies based on
analyses of morphological data with limited sampling of Recent and fossil taxa, and many …

Abstract Nemolestes and Procladosictis are Eocene sparassodonts of controversial
affinities. Nevertheless, despite the poor preservation of their holotypes, several other …

The external and internal surfaces of the skull of the Hispaniolan solenodon, Solenodon
paradoxus, are described and illustrated in detail based on five museum specimens (one …

Background We describe new cranial and post-cranial marsupial fossils from the early
Eocene Tingamarra Local Fauna in Australia and refer them to Djarthia murgonensis, which …

Andinodelphys cochabambensis Marshall & Muizon, 1988 is one of the best preserved
metatherian species from the early Palaeocene fauna of Tiupampa (Bolivia). It is …

The present paper describes a disarticulated skull of Allqokirus australis, a basal
sparassodont (Metatheria, Mammalia) from the early Palaeocene (c. 65 Ma.) of Tiupampa …

Newly described marsupial specimens of Judithian (late Campanian) and Lancian
(Maastrichtian) age in the western interior of North America (Wyoming to Alberta) have …

The skull of the polydolopimorphian marsupialiform Epidolops ameghinoi is described in
detail for the first time, based on a single well-preserved cranium and associated left and …

Although isolated mammalian petrosals often are encountered in the fossil record, few
detailed descriptions of these bones exist for extant taxa. As a contribution to that void …

Ontogeny, or the development of an individual from conception to death, is a major source of
variation in vertebrate morphology. All anatomical systems are affected by ontogeny, and …
