Growth duration, life history and ecological traits of bony-toothed birds (Odontopterygiformes): implications from bone histology

Bony-toothed birds (Odontopterygiformes), an order of seabirds that existed throughout most of the Cenozoic, had unusually fragile, thin-walled bones. This complicates their study and draws attention to microscopic methods, which are applicable even to fragmentary remains. The histological structure...
