Keywords: France; Herpetotheriidae; molars; systematics; Ypresian

https://doi.org/10.18563/journal.m3.255

  Abstract

    This contribution contains the three-dimensional models of the most informative fossil material attributed to both Peratherium musivum Gernelle, 2024, and Peratherium maximum (Crochet, 1979), respectively from early and middle early Eocene French localities. These specimens, which document the emergence of the relatively large peratheriines, were analyzed and discussed in: Gernelle et al. (2024), Dental morphology evolution in early peratheriines, including a new morphologically cryptic species and findings on the largest early Eocene European metatherian. https://doi.org/10.1080/08912963.2024.2403602

3D models related to the publication: The endocranial cast of Khirtharia (Artiodactyla, Raoellidae) provides new insights into the earliest evolution of the cetacean brain
Maëva J. Orliac Logo and Mohd Waqas Logo
Published online: 06/01/2025

Keywords: brain; Cetacea; India; Middle Eocene

https://doi.org/10.18563/journal.m3.253

  Abstract

    The present 3D dataset contains 3D models of the endocranial cast of the raoellid Khirtharia inflata retrieved from the middle Eocene of the Upper Subathu Formation in the Kalakot area (India). Raoellidae are closely related to stem cetaceans and bring crucial information to understand the earliest phase of land to water transition in Cetacea.

Virtual reconstruction of a Late Jurassic metriorhynchid skull from Switzerland and its use for scientific illustration and paleoart

Published online: 19/07/2023

Keywords: Kimmeridgian; Late Jurassic; Metriorhynchidae; paleoart; Thalattosuchia

https://doi.org/10.18563/journal.m3.178

  Abstract

    The democratization of 3D techniques in recent years provides exciting new opportunities for the study of complex fossils. In the present contribution, we provide a virtual reconstruction of a partial, disarticulated metriorhynchid (Metriorhynchidae, Thalattosuchia, Crocodylomorpha) skull from the Late Jurassic of northwestern Switzerland. This virtual reconstruction was used to produce high quality scientific illustrations of the whole skull for descriptive purposes. The reconstructed skull also served for the estimation of the total body length of the specimen and to propose a life reconstruction of the animal in its paleoenvironment. In an effort for transparency, we review the sources that were consulted for the life reconstruction and explain the choices that we had to make.

https://doi.org/10.18563/journal.m3.229

  Abstract

    Speothos pacivorus is an extinct South American canid (Canidae: Cerdocyonina) from the Pleistocene of Lagoa Santa Karst, Central Brazil. This taxon is one of the hypercarnivore canids that vanished from the continent at the end of Pleistocene. Although all remains of Speothos pacivorus were collected in the 19th century by the Danish naturalist Peter W. Lund, few studies have committed to an in-depth analysis of the taxon and the known specimens. Here, we analyzed all biological remains of S. pacivorus hosted in the Peter Lund/Quaternary Collection at the Natural History Museum of Denmark, Copenhagen, by listing and illustrating all its specimens known to date. We also conducted a reconstruction of the holotype, an almost complete cranium, based on a µCT scan, producing an undeformed and crack-free three-dimensional model. With this data available we aim to foster new research on this elusive species.

A delphinid petrosal bone from a gravesite on Ahu Tahai, Easter Island: taxonomic attribution, external and internal morphology.
Maëva J. Orliac Logo, Catherine Orliac, Michel C. Orliac and Antoine Hautin
Published online: 31/03/2020

Keywords: bony labyrinth; petrosal; Rapanui; stapes; vestibulo cochlear nerve

https://doi.org/10.18563/journal.m3.91

  Abstract

    In this contribution, we describe the external and internal morphology of a delphinid petrosal bone collected from Ahu Tahai, a burial site located on the Southwestern coast of Easter Island, at Hangaroa. We discuss the taxonomic attribution of this archaeological item and describe its internal structures based on µCT data, including the bony labyrinth and the nerve and vein patterns. Identification of the nerves exists lead us to relocate the identification of the foramen singulare in delphinid petrosals.

Keywords: coelacanth; Computed Tomography; Cranial osteology; Latimeria

https://doi.org/10.18563/journal.m3.211

  Abstract

    We provide a 3D reconstruction of the skull of Latimeria chalumnae that can be easily accessed and visualized for a better understanding of its cranial anatomy. Different skeletal elements are saved as separate PLY files that can be combined to visualize the entire skull or isolated to virtually dissect the skull. We included some guidelines for a fast and easy visualization of the 3D skull.

Keywords: fuctuating asymmetry; geometric morphometrics; intraspecific variation; Mus musculus domesticus; semicircular canals

https://doi.org/10.18563/journal.m3.220

  Abstract

    This contribution contains 3D models of left and right house mouse (Mus musculus domesticus) inner ears analyzed in Renaud et al. (2024). The studied mice belong to four groups: wild-trapped mice, wild-derived lab offspring, a typical laboratory strain (Swiss) and hybrids between wild-derived and Swiss mice. They have been analyzed to assess the impact of mobility reduction on inner ear morphology, including patterns of divergence, levels of inter-individual variance (disparity) and intra-individual variance (fluctuating asymmetry)
