At least 29 species of fossil primates have been referred to fruit, nectar, and/or exudate feeding dietary niches. Many studies have detailed the morphological correlates of fruit feeding in comparison to insectivory and folivory. In contrast, few…
This study presents a statistical analysis of variability in six measures of enamel prism and ameloblast size and spacing gathered using confocal microscopy, and applies the results to a consideration of appropriate sampling strategies for taxonomic…
The hypothesis that flower shape affects nectar-feeding performance was examined for the nectarivorous bat, Syconycteris australis. Experiments using feeders with artificial flowers of different diameters demonstrated that the narrow flower diameter…
