New evidence from high-resolution computed microtomography of Triassic stem-mammal skulls from South America enhances discussions on turbinates before the origin of Mammaliaformes
Abstract The nasal cavity of living mammals Youth is a unique structural complex among tetrapods, acquired along a series of major morphological transformations that occurred mainly during the Mesozoic Era, within the Synapsida clade.Particularly, non-mammaliaform cynodonts document several morphological changes in the skull, during the Triassic Pe
