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
