The origins of mammal growth patterns during the Jurassic mammalian radiation (2024)
Journal Article
Newham, E., Corfe, I. J., Brewer, P., Bright, J. A., Fernandez, V., Gostling, N. J., Hoffmann, S., Jäger, K. R., Kague, E., Lovric, G., Marone, F., Panciroli, E., Schneider, P., Schultz, J. A., Suhonen, H., Witchell, A., Gill, P. G., & Martin, T. (2024). The origins of mammal growth patterns during the Jurassic mammalian radiation. Science Advances, 10(32), eado4555. https://doi.org/10.1126/sciadv.ado4555

We use synchrotron x-ray tomography of annual growth increments in the dental cementum of mammaliaforms (stem and crown fossil mammals) from three faunas across the Jurassic to map the origin of patterns of mammalian growth patterns, which are intrin...

Synthetic analysis of trophic diversity and evolution in Enantiornithes with new insights from Bohaiornithidae (2024)
Journal Article
Miller, C. V., Bright, J. A., Wang, X., Zheng, X., & Pittman, M. (2024). Synthetic analysis of trophic diversity and evolution in Enantiornithes with new insights from Bohaiornithidae. eLife, 12, Article RP89871. https://doi.org/10.7554/eLife.89871

Enantiornithines were the dominant birds of the Mesozoic, but understanding of their diet is still tenuous. We introduce new data on the enantiornithine family Bohaiornithidae, famous for their large size and powerfully built teeth and claws. In tand...
