Coevolution of Tooth Crown Height and Diet in Oreodonts (Merycoidodontidae, Artiodactyla) Examined with Phylogenetically Independent Contrasts (2006, methodology): “…taxa from standard least squares regressions made on body mass and linear osteological dimensions in extant species (Damuth and MacFadden, 1990; Delson et al., 2000), these estimates are statistically invalid due to problems associated with using species as data points (Garland and Ives, 2000;…”
Black and White Colobus Monkey (Colobus guereza) Roars as a Source of Both Honest and Exaggerated Information About Body Mass (2006, methodology): “This number is surprising because wild guereza males, at 9.1–11.9 kg ( x values for different subspecies; Delson et al. 2000), are much smaller than human males; yet the VTL of human males is typically <17 cm (Fitch & Giedd 1999).”
