ISOTOPIC RECORDS FROM EARLY WHALES AND SEA COWS: CONTRASTING PATTERNS OF ECOLOGICAL TRANSITION (2006, background): “These taxa represent, respectively, the oldest and youngest families of archaeocetes (O’Leary and Uhen, 1999; Thewissen and Williams, 2002; Uhen, 2004).”
MANDIBULAR AND DENTAL VARIATION AND THE EVOLUTION OF SUCTION FEEDING IN ODONTOCETI (2006, background): “The paleontological record shows that the presumed common ancestor of Odontoceti, a dorudontine basilosaurid archaeocete, did not possess a blunt head and small, round mouth, but instead had a long, notched gape filled with large, multicusped teeth (Barnes and Mitchell 1978; Uhen 2002, 2004).”
Cladistic analysis and a revised classification of fossil and recent mysticetes (2007, background): “Furthermore, it has been thoroughly described (Uhen, 1996, 2004).”
From Land to Water: the Origin of Whales, Dolphins, and Porpoises (2009, background): “In the forelimb, basilosaurids resemble modern cetaceans, in that their elbow joint is not separately mobile and their hand webbed with individual digits not recognizable (Uhen 2004).”
