Australia’s oldest crocodylian eggshell: insights into the reproductive paleoecology of mekosuchines
Alongside large madtsoiid snakes, the largest known lizards, thylacoleonid marsupials and a range of other terrestrial carnivores, the now extinct mekosuchine crocodylians were significant predator...

The evolution and biological role of the neomorphic ossification of the nasal cartilage in Neosclerocalyptini glyptodonts
Cranial neomorphic ossifications are extremely rare and their biological roles are largely unexplored. In mammals, the few known examples concern almost exclusively the anterior part of the snout, ...
