- Evolution of the patella and patelloid in marsupial mammals
Abstract The musculoskeletal system of marsupial mammals has numerous unusual features beyond the pouch and epipubic bones One example is the widespread absence or reduction (to a fibrous “patelloid”) of the patella (“kneecap”) sesamoid bone, but prior studies with coarse sampling indicated complex patterns of evolution of this absence or reduction
- Catalog of Type Specimens of Recent Mammals: Rodentia . . .
This is the fifth type catalog of USNM mammals published to date, following Lyon and Osgood (1909;1,415 specimens reported), Poole and Schantz (1942;2,824 specimens reported), Fisher and Ludwig
