• The evolution of Metriorhynchoidea (mesoeucrocodylia, thalattosuchia): an integrated approach using geometric morphometrics, analysis of disparity, and biomechanics (2010, background): “Recent 3D FEA results (McHenry et al., 2006; Rayfield et al., 2007b; Rayfield & Milner, 2008) demonstrate that platyrostry is not the ‘best cranial design’ for rotational feeding.”
• The distribution of dental features in non-avian theropod dinosaurs: Taxonomic potential, degree of homoplasy, and major evolutionary trends (2019, background): “Several studies have shown that these theropods were semi-aquatic animals feeding, at least partially, on fish (e.g., Charig and Milner, 1997; Rayfield et al., 2007; Amiot et al., 2010; Ibrahim et al., 2014; Hendrickx et al., 2016; Hassler et al., 2018), suggesting that their peculiar dentition is…”
