Permian tetrapod extinction events
SG Lucas - Earth-Science Reviews, 2017 - Elsevier
Four substantial tetrapod extinctions have been identified during the Permian, but only one
of these is an apparent mass extinction. Analyses of global compilations of the family-level …

Outline of a Permian tetrapod footprint ichnostratigraphy
S Voigt, SG Lucas - 2018 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
Tetrapod footprints are among the most common fossil remains in continental Permian strata
and thus are of biostratigraphic interest. Based on the vertical distribution of the 13 best …

Using salamanders as model taxa to understand vertebrate feeding constraints during the late Devonian water-to-land transition
The vertebrate water-to-land transition and the rise of tetrapods brought about fundamental
changes for the groups undergoing these evolutionary changes (ie stem and early …

Fossil bone histology reveals ancient origins for rapid juvenile growth in tetrapods
Patterns of growth throughout the lifetime of an animal reflect critical life history traits such as
reproductive timing, physiology, and ecological interactions. The ancestral growth pattern for …

Getting to the root of scales, feather and hair: As deep as odontodes?
While every jawed vertebrate, or its recent ancestor, possesses teeth, skin appendages are
