Constraints on the timescale of animal evolutionary history (2015, background): “Phylogenetic analysis shows that Hesperocyon is closely related to Canidae, based on its possession of a fully ossified auditory bulla composed mainly of the caudal entotympanic, with contributions from the ecotympanic and rostral entotympanic, and the caudla entotympanic forms a partial septum with”
Long in the tooth: evolution of sabertooth cat cranial shape (2008, background): “Akersten (1985) argued that this complex would have been used to drive a shallow canine shear bite as the jaw-adducting musculature became weaker through gape-related modification (Wroe et al. 2005; McHenry et al. 2007).”
