A Three-Dimensional Analysis of Morphological Evolution and Locomotor Performance of the Carnivoran Forelimb
In this study, three-dimensional landmark-based methods of geometric morphometrics are used for estimating the influence of phylogeny, allometry and locomotor performance on forelimb shape in living and extinct carnivorans (Mammalia, Carnivora). The main objective is to investigate morphological con...
