New online: Hendrickx, Gaetano, Choiniere, Mocke & Abdala – A new traversodontid cynodont with a peculiar postcanine dentition from the Middle/Late Triassic of Namibia and dental evolution in basal gomphodonts https://t.co/lJhw2LL6aS
Lanternfishes are their name and zooplankton their game. Lanternfishes are one of the most abundant vertebrates on the planet and generally speaking, feast on zooplankton. I even recently published a paper in jmorph on lanternfish heterodont dentition! #sundayfishsketch

is it me, or are leopard seals beyond adorable?! Flux looks so cute as one that they might become a regular feature. (plus, how cool is their dentition?!)
ALRIGHT SO I WASN'T SUPER SURE ABOUT THE MANDIBLES SO I GAVE THEM MORE HUMAN DENTITION AND UH O FUCK O GOD
I imagine that orcs have the most advanced dental care in most fantasy settings. They always have the most elaborate dentition *and* the lifestyles most dependent upon tooth repair and frequent aggressive biting.
Everyone, Meet Fordyy! My art resources friend and study buddy!
They're a cute lil mutt I'm working on designing to serve as an education tool as well as an art resource. They're here to help me remember every detail about canine dentition, with tons of subtle visual cues!
The jaws & dentition of Cycnorhamphus are unusual for ctenochasmatoids, and suggest a specialized diet of harder food items. Possible menu items include shellfish, snails, large insects, and seeds/pinecones.
r. atrox was closely related to dinogorgon which has the most badass name of any animal ever therefore some people mightve heard of it. i find it interesting how gorgonopsids had limited post canine dentition, how many choked to death on bones?
Last Friday, I shared my image of the oral jaws and dentition of a 𝑮𝒂𝒎𝒃𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒂 𝒂𝒇𝒇𝒊𝒏𝒊𝒔. Here is the rest of it! Total length is ~ 3cm. #Ichthyology #SciArt #Photography #FishyFriday #FishSci
The dentition of Centropyge flavissima (the lemonpeel angelfish) is really astounding! https://t.co/ctl7MekA62
The dentition of both the male babirusa and strap-toothed whale can lead to some rather unpleasant results.
