Figure 1 in X-ray microcomputed and synchrotron tomographic analysis of the basicranial axis of emydopoid dicynodonts: implications for fossoriality and phylogeny

Figure 1. Illustration of the braincase region within the entire skull. Pristerodon mackayi (BP/1/2642) in (A) right lateral, (B) posterior and (C) ventral views. Myosaurus gracilis (BP/1/2690) in (D) right lateral, (E) posterior and (F) ventral views. The Malawian cistecephalid (DMMM-PK-16-1) in (G) left lateral and (H) posterior views. Kaaeingasaurus fossilis (GPIT-PV-117032) in (I) right lateral, (J) posterior and (K) ventral views. Note that the Malawian cistecephalid specimen is completely covered by matrix, such that a good contrast to enable the visibility of the skull was not obtained. Dark green – supraoccipital; Purple – orbitosphenoid; Dark orange – opisthotic; Light orange – pterygoid; Green – basioccipital; Magenta – exoccipital; Cyan blue – parasphenoid rostrum; Navy blue – prootic; Aqua blue – basisphenoid; Light Rose – epipterygoid.Published as part of Macungo, Zanildo, Benoit, Julien, Fernandez, Vincent & Araújo, Ricardo M N, 2023, X-ray microcomputed and synchrotron tomographic analysis of the basicranial axis of emydopoid dicynodonts: implications for fossoriality and phylogeny, pp. 1-46 in Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 198 (1) on page 5, DOI: 10.1093/zoolinnean/zlac033, http://zenodo.org/record/792214
