The petrosal bone of Prodremotherium sp. (Artiodactyla, Ruminantia).
Alexandre Assemat Logo and Nicolas L. M. Brualla Logo
Published online: 13/02/2015

Keywords: Late Oligocene; MP 26; MP 28; periotic bone; ruminant

https://doi.org/10.18563/m3.1.2.e1

  Abstract

    This project presents the 3D models of two isolated petrosals from the Oligocene locality of Pech de Fraysse (Quercy, France) here attributed to the genus Prodremotherium Filhol, 1877. Our aim is to describe the petrosal morphology of this Oligocene “early ruminant” as only few data are available in the literature for Oligocene taxa.

  Abstract

    This contribution contains the 3D models described and figured in the following publication:Skull and Inner Ear Morphometrics in Sheep and Goats: Species and Breed Differentiation with Bioarchaeological Applications (Hemelsdael et al. submitted). The models include the external surface of a complete skull and inner ear of both a sheep (Ovis aries) and a goat (Capra hircus), generated from micro-CT scans. In the associated paper, we used 3D geometric morphometric data to assess inter and intra (i.e. between breeds) discrimination based on complete skulls, skull fragments and the semi-circular canals of the inner ear.

  Abstract

    This project presents the osteological connexions of the petrosal bone of the extant Hippopotamidae Hippopotamus amphibius and Choeropsis liberiensis by a virtual osteological dissection of the ear region. The petrosal, the bulla, the sinuses and the major morphological features surrounding the petrosal bone are labelled, both in situ and in an exploded model presenting disassembly views. The directional underwater hearing mode of Hippopotamidae is discussed based on the new observations.

3D models related to the publication “3D topography as an indicator of change in food processing ability in the conodont genus Palmatolepis elements”

  Abstract

    The present 3D dataset contains 15 specimens selected from the 69 3D models analyzed in the paper “3D topography as an indicator of change in food processing ability in the conodont genus Palmatolepis elements”. 3D topographic analysis of Palmatolepis P1 conodont elements from the Late Devonian period revealed an increase in blade sharpness together with a reduction in platform size. This indicates morphofunctional adaptation to more efficient prey processing.

3D models related to the publication: “Trophic differentiation between the endemic Cypriot mouse and the house mouse: a study coupling stable isotopes and morphometrics”
 
Sabrina Renaud Logo, Eleftherios . Hadjisterkotis Logo, George P. Mitsainas Logo and Emilie A. Hardouin Logo
Published online: 18/11/2024

Keywords: biomechanics; geometric morphometrics; Mandible morphology; Mus cypriacus; Mus musculus domesticus

https://doi.org/10.18563/journal.m3.247

  Abstract

    This contribution contains 3D models of mandibles of Cypriot mice (Mus cypriacus) and house mice (Mus musculus domesticus) from the island of Cyprus. The niche partitioning of the two species was investigated using isotopic ecology, geometric morphometrics and biomechanics. Both species displayed generalist feeding behavior, modulated by fine-tuned adaptation to their feeding habits. The house mouse mandible, with a relatively large masseter area and an optimization for incisor biting, appears as an all-rounder tool for foraging on diverse non-natural items.
    These models are analyzed in the following publication: Renaud et al 2024, “Trophic differentiation between the endemic Cypriot mouse and the house mouse: a study coupling stable isotopes and morphometrics”, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10914-024-09740-5
