Over the past two decades, the development of methods for visualizing and analysing specimens digitally, in three and even four dimensions, has transformed the study of living and fossil organisms. However, the initial promise that the widespread application of such methods would facilitate access to the underlying digital data has... -

Inner ear anatomy is a proxy for deducing auditory capability and behaviour in reptiles and birds
Inferences of hearing capabilities and audition-related behaviours in extinct reptiles and birds have previously been based on comparing cochlear duct dimensions with those of living species. However, the relationship between inner-ear bony anatomy and hearing ability or vocalization has never been tested rigorously in extant or fossil taxa. Here, micro-computed...Walsh, Stig A ; Barrett, Paul M ; Milner, Angela C ; Manley, Geoffrey ; Witmer, Lawrence M
