Description
An account of the resource
Embryonic development in dolphins retrofits a land-adapted body for life in the sea. But the rarity of preserved specimens stymies students and researchers who want to study, say, how the forelimbs morph into flippers. Aimed at filling this gap is the newborn site Digital Library of Dolphin Development, created by anatomist Hans Thewissen of the Northeastern Ohio Universities College of Medicine in Rootstown and colleagues. People can also probe the gory details of internal anatomy with sectioned embryos representing three developmental stages.
