A Proposed Terminology of Theropod Teeth (Dinosauria, Saurischia) (2015, background): “Crown (co)—Portion of the tooth covered with enamel, typically situated above the gum and protruding into the mouth (Schwenk, 2000; McGraw-Hill, 2003; Figs.”
The ontogeny of bite-force performance in American alligator (Alligator mississippiensis) (2003, background): “A number of investigations of functional vertebrate morphology have sought an understanding of how the form and function of animal skulls, jaws, dentitions and associated musculature collectively contribute to feeding performance and the occupation of ecological niches (see recent reviews in Wainwri”
Correlations between lizard cranial shape and diet: A quantitative, phylogenetically informed analysis (2005, background): “In contrast to previously published statements (Greene, 1982; King, 1996; Schwenk, 2000), there does appear to be a clear relationship between dietary and phenotypic specialization in lepidosaurs.”
The distribution of dental features in non-avian theropod dinosaurs: Taxonomic potential, degree of homoplasy, and major evolutionary trends (2019, background): “A ziphodont dentition is an adaptation for carnivory, being suited to slashing, cutting through flesh and defleshing (Abler, 1992; Schwenk, 2000; D’Amore, 2009; D’Amore and Blumenschine, 2009; Brink et al., 2015).”
Comparative Physiology of Fasting, Starvation, and Food Limitation (2012, background): “We suggest that like their extreme trophic morphology (Cundall and Greene 2000), the ability of snakes to resist food deprivation may be a key adaptation that contributed to their successful radiation.”
Big gulps require high drag for fin whale lunge feeding (2007, background): “This feeding strategy occurs in several different modes among living mysticetes (Werth 2000): (1) benthic suction feeding, observed only in the gray whale Eschrichtius robustus; (2) skim or continuous ram feed- ing, which bowhead and right whales (Balaenidae) use exclusively; and, lastly, (3) lunge…”
Feeding ecology of North American gopher snakes (Pituophis catenifer, Colubridae) (2002, background): “By setting realistic boundaries on measures of performance, knowledge about the natural diet of an animal can also inform studies of functional and evolutionary morphology (Greene, 1986; Lorenz Elwood & Cundall, 1994; Schwenk, 2000).”
Predators as drivers of insect defenses (2020, background): “Blind snakes specialize in eating soil insects such as termites and ants (Cundall & Greene 2000).”
Scaling of lunge‐feeding performance in rorqual whales: mass‐specific energy expenditure increases with body size and progressively limits diving capacity (2012, background): “The largest vertebrates of all time are predominately suspension filter feeders in the marine environment and include baleen whales (Werth 2000), elasmobranchs (Sanderson & Wassersug 1993) and bony fishes (Friedman et al.”
Evolution of hypsodonty in equids: testing a hypothesis of adaptation (2006, background): “Mammalian tooth shape is generally thought to reflect feeding ecology (see Butler 1983; Hiiemae 2000) and paleontologists routinely use tooth morphology to infer diet in fossil taxa (Janis 1984, 1997/98; Fortelius et al. 1996; Jernvall et al. 1996; but see MacFadden et al. 1999; Feranec 2004).”
