Are Diet Preferences Associated to Skulls Shape Diversification in Xenodontine Snakes?
Snakes are a highly successful group of vertebrates, within great diversity in habitat, diet, and morphology. The unique adaptations for the snake skull for ingesting large prey in more primitive macrostomatan snakes have been well documented. However, subsequent diversification in snake cranial sha...
