EFFECT OF ONTOGENETIC-AGE DISTRIBUTION IN FOSSIL AND MODERN SAMPLES ON THE INTERPRETATION OF UNGULATE PALEODIETS USING THE MESOWEAR METHOD (2007, background): “For example, Mihlbachler and Solounias (2005, 2006) found common mesowear trends in brachydont oreodonts and horses through the Eocene-Oligocene climate transition, with both having blunter cusps in the latest Eocene, on average, than in the earliest Oligocene.”
Grit not grass: Concordant patterns of early origin of hypsodonty in Great Plains ungulates and Glires (2012, methodology): “Phylogenetic approaches (Marivaux et al., 2004; Mihlbachler and Solounias, 2006), tooth micro- and mesowear analysis (Fortelius and Solounias, 2000; Mihlbachler and Solounias, 2006; Semprebon and Rivals, 2007, 2010; Eronen et al., 2010a; Mihlbachler et al., 2011) and the inclusion of other…”
Reconstructing Body Size in Extinct Crown Cetacea (Neoceti) Using Allometry, Phylogenetic Methods and Tests from the Fossil Record (2011, methodology): “body size in extinct mammals (Reynolds 2002; Mihlbachler and Solounias 2006; Sears et al. 2008) and, in some cases, demonstrated the utility of these methods in conjunction with fossil data for evaluating ancestral states (Polly 2001; Finarelli and Flynn 2006).”
Palaeoecology of the Mammoth Steppe fauna from the late Pleistocene of the North Sea and Alaska: Separating species preferences from geographic influence in paleoecological dental wear analysis (2010, background): “Mesowear has been successfully used to assign paleodiets to extinct species and test hypotheses of dental/diet coevolution (Kaiser et al., 2000; Kaiser and Solounias, 2003; Mihlbachler and Solounias, 2006; Semprebon and Rivals, 2007).”
Tooth wear in captive wild ruminant species differs from that of free-ranging conspecifics (2009, methodology): “…reconstructions of the biology of extinct species 16 (Franz-Odendaal et al., 2003; Kaiser and Fortelius, 2003; Kaiser and Croitor, 2004; 17 Mihlbachler and Solounias, 2006; Schulz et al., 2007; Semprebon and Rivals, 2007) 18 or of whole palaeoecosystems (Kaiser and Rössner, 2007; Rivals…”
Evidence for geographic variation in the diets of late Pleistocene and early Holocene Bison in North America, and differences from the diets of recent Bison (2007, background): “Much of the overlap in the mesowear data for these dietary categories is attributable to the fact that abrasion levels in diets are not only related to the intrinsic properties of the plants themselves, but also variable amounts of extrinsic grit (dust and sand) that is incidentally consumed along w”
Hypsodonty and tooth facet development in relation to diet and habitat in herbivorous ungulates: implications for understanding tooth wear (2013, background): “Mihlbachler and Solounias (2006) compared an aspect of the mesowear signal to crown height in oreodont molars, but did not find a correlation after correcting for phylogeny; Mihlbachler et al. (2011) compared the MS and a measure similar to the HI in fossil and extant equids, and found a highly…”
