Abstract Currently restricted to Southeast Asia and Africa, extant hominoids are the remnants
of a group that was much more diverse during the Miocene. Apes initially diversified in Africa …

This review suggests revisiting nose anatomy by considering the ethmoidal labyrinths as
part of the olfactory nose and not as paranasal sinuses. Phylogenetically, the olfactory and …

Pierolapithecus catalaunicus (~ 12 million years ago, northeastern Spain) is key to
understanding the mosaic nature of hominid (great ape and human) evolution. Notably, its …

Despite intensive study, many aspects of the evolutionary history of great apes and humans
(Hominidae) are not well understood. In particular, the phylogenetic relationships of many …

It is widely understood that Hominoidea (apes and humans) and Cercopithecoidea (Old
World monkeys) have a common ancestry as Catarrhini deeply rooted in Afro-Arabia,,,. The …

INTRODUCTION Reconstructing the ancestral morphotype from which extant hominoids
(apes and humans) evolved is complicated by the mosaic nature of ape evolution, the …

This special issue of the Anatomical Record explores the presence and diversity of
paranasal sinuses in distinct vertebrate groups. The following topics are addressed in …

Objectives Maxillary sinus volume tracks ecogeographic differences in nasal form and may
serve as a zone of accommodation for ontogenetic and evolutionary changes in nasal cavity …

This chapter provides the first descriptions of the intact paranasal sinuses of the Hofmeyr
cranium, which include both frontal sinuses and the right maxillary sinus, and compares …

The internal skeleton of the nasal cavity is sporadically and often incompletely described for
many marsupial species and mammals in general. Here, I provide an anatomical survey of …
