Zawia______________ DEAN OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND 2013 ABSTRACT The skeletons of chondrichthyans (sharks, skates, rays, and chimeras) are composed entirely of cartilage, yet must still provide the skeletal support that bone does in other vertebrates. There is also an incredible range of diversity in the morphology of the cartilaginous skeleton of the feeding apparatus in Chondrichthyans. The goal of this research is to provide insight into the morphological evolution and biomechanical function of the cranial skeleton in chondrichthyans. Feeding style changes can occur with morphological changes in the skeletal elements of the shark feeding apparatus.

Editor in charge: Ingmar Werneburg Abstract Gnathostomes all share the common challenge of assembling 1st pharyngeal arch elements and associated dermal bones (suspensorium) with the neurocranium into a functioning linkage system. In many tetrapods, the otic and palatobasal articulations between suspensorium and neurocranial elements form the joints integral for cranial kinesis. Among sauropsids, the otic (quadratosquamosal) joint is a key feature in this linkage system and shows considerable variability in shape, tissue-level construction and mobility among lineages of reptiles. Here we explore the biomechanics of the suspensorium and the otic joint in fve disparate species of sauropsids of different kinetic capacity (two squamates, one non-avian theropod dinosaur, and two avian species). Using 3D muscle modeling, comparisons of muscle moments, joint surface areas, cross-sectional geometries, and fnite element analysis, we characterize biomechanical differences in the resultants of protractor muscles, loading of otic joints, and bending properties of pterygoid bones.

    ARTICLE Received 11 May 2014 | Accepted 24 Oct 2014 | Published 1 Dec 2014 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms6661 OPEN Evolutionary innovation and conservation in the embryonic derivation of the vertebrate skull Nadine Piekarski1,*, Joshua B. Gross1,*,w & James Hanken1 Development of the vertebrate skull has been studied intensively for more than 150 years, yet many essential features remain unresolved. One such feature is the extent to which embryonic derivation of individual bones is evolutionarily conserved or labile. We perform long-term fate mapping using GFP-transgenic axolotl and Xenopus laevis to document the contribution of individual cranial neural crest streams to the osteocranium in these amphibians. Here we show that the axolotl pattern is strikingly similar to that in amniotes; it likely represents the ancestral condition for tetrapods. Unexpectedly, the pattern in Xenopus is much different; it may constitute a unique condition that evolved after anurans diverged from other amphibians. Such changes reveal an unappreciated relation between life history evolution and cranial development and exemplify ‘developmental system drift’, in which interspecific divergence in developmental processes that underlie homologous characters occurs with little or no concomitant change in the adult phenotype. 1 Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology, Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University, 26 Oxford Street, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138, USA. * These authors contributed equally to this work. w Present address: Department of Biological Sciences, University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, Ohio 45221, USA.

  • Notes on the Development of the Chondrocranium of Polypterus Senegalus
    Notes on the Development of the Chondrocranium of Polypterus Senegalus. By J. A. Moy-Thomas, B.A. Demonstrator in Zoology, the University, Leeds. With 16 Text-figures. CONTENTS. PAGE INTRODUCTION . 209 DESCRIPTION OF SPECIMENS . 210 EXPLANATION OF LETTBBING . 211 DISCUSSION OF RESULTS ...... 226 SUMMARY ...... 228 LIST OF LITERATURE ....... 228 INTRODUCTION THE chondrocranium of Polypterus is far better known in the later stages than in the earlier stages. Pollard (1892) described the cranial anatomy of a half-grown specimen, Budgett (1902) described a 30-mm. larva, and Lehn (1918) gave a detailed account of the neurocranium of a 55- and a 76-mm. specimen. The skull of the adult was first described by Traquair (1871); his description was added to by Bridge (1888), and finally an exhaustive description was given by Allis (1922). The chondrocranium of younger stages is, however, far less well known. The three existing young stages were briefly described by Graham Kerr (1907), and the mandibular and hyoid bars with their associated muscles of the same specimens were described by Edgeworth (1929). De Beer (1926) drew atten- tion to the important morphological characters in the chon- drocranium of Polypterus. Thus it can be seen that existing accounts of the development of the chondrocranium of P2 210 J. A. MOY-THOMAS Polypterus are mainly confined to the older stages, and the development of the young stages is only poorly known. At the suggestion of my friend and former tutor, Dr. G. R. de Beer, I determined to re-examine Budgett's material and to give a description of the chondrocranium, which would embody all the available information.

Chmielewski Division of Anatomy, Department of Human Morphology and Embryology, Faculty of Medicine, Wroclaw Medical University, Wroclaw, Poland [Received: 12 October 2019; Accepted: 17 November 2019; Early publication date: 3 December 2019] In 2019, the updated and extended version of Terminologia Anatomica was published by the Federative International Programme for Anatomical Terminology (FIPAT). This new edition uses more precise and adequate anatomical names compared to its predecessors. Nevertheless, numerous terms have been modified, which poses a challenge to those who prefer traditional anatomical names, i.e. medical students, teachers, clinicians and their instructors. Therefore, there is a need to popularise this new edition of terminology and explain these recent changes. The anatomy of the head, including the cranium, the extracranial bones of the head, the soft parts of the face and the encephalon, poses a particular challenge for medical students but also engenders enthusiasm in those of them who are astute learners. The new version of anatomical terminology concerning the human skull (FIPAT 2019) is presented and briefly discussed in this synopsis. The aim of this article is to present, popularise and explain these interesting modifications that have recently been endorsed by the FIPAT. Based on teaching experience at the Division of Anatomy/Department of Anatomy at Wroclaw Medical University, a brief description of the human skull is given here.

  • The Human Skeleton Anterior View

This great variation in size is accompanied by similar variation in shape which makes identification of individual bones relatively straightforward. Some bones, however, are more difficult to identify than others, with the bones of the hands, feet, rib cage and vertebral column requiring closer scrutiny than the rest. This is true both within our species and between our species and other mammals. While it is very difficult to confuse a human femur with that from a large kangaroo, phalanges, metatarsals and metacarpals require greater expertise. Prior to epiphyseal union infant and juvenile skeletal elements may also prove problematic. This is particulary true where the infant bones are fragmentary and missing their articular surfaces. In part this is a reflection of experience as osteological collections contain relatively few subadult skeletons and they are less frequently encountered in forensic and anthropological investigations. There are a number of excellent texts on human osteology and several of the more general texts on physical anthropology have a chapter devoted to the human skeleton and dentition. Reference books on human anatomy, for instance Warwick and Williams’s (1973) “Gray’s Anatomy”, and dental anatomy, for example Wheeler (1974), are a good source of information although often aimed at a specialist audience.

  • Evolution and Development of the Bird Chondrocranium Evelyn Hüppi1* , Ingmar Werneburg2,3 and Marcelo R
    Hüppi et al. Frontiers in Zoology (2021) 18:21 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12983-021-00406-z REVIEW Open Access Evolution and development of the bird chondrocranium Evelyn Hüppi1* , Ingmar Werneburg2,3 and Marcelo R. Sánchez-Villagra1 Abstract Background: Birds exhibit an enormous diversity in adult skull shape (disparity), while their embryonic chondrocrania are considered to be conserved across species. However, there may be chondrocranial features that are diagnostic for bird clades or for Aves as a whole. We synthesized and analyzed information on the sequence of chondrification of 23 elements in ten bird species and five outgroups. Moreover, we critically considered the developmental morphology of the chondrocrania of 21 bird species and examined whether the diversity in adult skull shape is reflected in the development of the embryonic skull, and whether there are group-specific developmental patterns. Results: We found that chondrocranial morphology is largely uniform in its major features, with some variation in the presence or absence of fenestrae and other parts. In kiwis (Apteryx), the unique morphology of the bony skull in the orbito-nasal region is reflected in its chondrocranial anatomy. Finally, differences in morphology and chondrification sequence may distinguish between different Palaeognathae and Neognathae and between the Galloanserae and Neoaves. The sequence of chondrification is largely conserved in birds, but with some variation in most regions. The peri- and prechordal areas in the base of the chondrocranium are largely conserved. In contrast to the outgroups, chondrification in birds starts in the acrochordal cartilage and the basicranial fenestra is formed secondarily. Further differences concern the orbital region, including early chondrification of the pila antotica and the late formation of the planum supraseptale.

The batoids and Heterodontiformes, Lamniformes, and Orectolobiformes, chimaeras tend to receive far less attention than nonbatoid including their synonyms as well as certain well-established but sharks in most places. Some of the batoids currently are as currently undescribed species (primarily Australian species important for fisheries or more so than nonbatoid sharks or mentioned by Last and Stevens, 1994). It includes species of chimaeroids, and some are under severe threat from major, moderate, minor, and minimal importance to fisheries overexploitation and habitat modification (i.e. sawfishes, (Compagno, 1990c) as well as those of doubtful or potential use freshwater stingrays). The batoid sharks will hopefully be to fisheries.

The Catalogue is intended to form part of a comprehensive review of shark-like fishes of the world in a form accessible to fisheries workers as well as researchers on shark systematics, biodiversity, distribution, and general biology.
