Fig. 1: Variations of the relative surface area and shape of the maxilloturbinal between mammalian species.
From: Mammalian maxilloturbinal evolution does not reflect thermal biology
Barplots represent the relative surface area of the maxilloturbinal in 310 species. Blue and red circles respectively represent the minimum and the maximum values from the naked mole-rat (Heterocephalus glaber) and the California sea lion (Zalophus californianus). 3D representations of the skull and the maxilloturbinal in several species. Barplots: cream = terrestrial, red = arboreal, blue = amphibious, black = subterranean, and green = flying species. Not to scale.
