Habitat changes and changing predatory habits in North American fossil canids.
Figueirido-Castillo, Francisco Borja
; Martín-Serra, Alberto; Tseng, Zhijie Jack; Janis, Christine Marie (Springer Nature, 2015-08-18)
The spread of open grassy habitats and the evolution of long-legged herbivorous mammals with high-crowned cheek teeth have been viewed as an example of coevolution. Previous studies indicate that specialized predatory ... -
Skull shape evolution in durophagous carnivorans.
Figueirido-Castillo, Francisco Borja; Tseng, Zhijie Jack; Martín-Serra, Alberto (Oxford Academic, 2013-07-01)
In this article, we investigate convergent evolution toward durophagy in carnivoran skull shape using geometricmorphometrics in a sample of living and extinct species. Principal components analysis indicate that, in spite ... -
Three-dimensional computer simulations of feeding behaviour in red and giant pandas relate skull biomechanics with dietary niche partitioning.
Figueirido-Castillo, Francisco Borja; Tseng, Zhijie Jack; Serrano Alarcón, Francisco José; Martín-Serra, Alberto; Pastor, Juan F. (The Royal Society, 2014)
The red (Ailurus fulgens) and giant (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) pandas are mammalian carnivores convergently adapted to a bamboo feeding diet. However, whereas Ailurus forages almost entirely on younger leaves, fruits and ...
