"Similarities between lions and sympatric carnivores in diel activity, size and morphology", de Greco, Chizzola, Meloro, Swanepoel, Tamagnini & Dalerum en Hystrix, doi.org/10.4404/hystri…

An enlightening workshop on cave bear teeth photogrammetry unfolded at Università Ferrara. We are grateful for the support of INQUA. It showcased a solid collaboration between Sapienza University, Liverpool John Moores University, and Ferrara. #CaveBearTeeth #ResearchCollab

Our new paper is out in Scientific Reports ! 🚨 We explored craniofacial evolutionary allometry (CREA) in felids and discovered that the Machairodontinae sabertoothed cats constitute an exceptions to this rule 🦁🔪 Congrats Davide Tamagnini for this amazing work! rdcu.be/dj2sB

I'm fortunate to have played a part in our recent study, unveiling the intricate pharyngeal tooth morphological diversity of priapulid worms since the Cambrian. Shedding new light on their evolutionary trajectories and ecological strategies. 🌊🦷shorturl.at/dtAK9 LJMU_ZOO
