• Hypsodonty and tooth facet development in relation to diet and habitat in herbivorous ungulates: implications for understanding tooth wear (2013, background): “Among various dental adaptations that especially herbivorous mammals are known for (Reilly et al. 2001, Fritz et al. 2009), variations in molar crown height, or hypsodonty, is one of the best documented (Van Valen 1960, Fortelius 1985, Janis 1988, Janis & Fortelius 1988, Mendoza & Palmqvist 2008,…”
