Locomotory Adaptations in 3D Humerus Geometry of Xenarthra: Testing for Convergence
Three-dimensional (3D) models of fossil bones are increasingly available, thus opening a novel frontier in the study of organismal size and shape evolution. We provide an example of how photogrammetry can be combined with Geometric Morphometrics (GMM) techniques to study patterns of morphological co...
