Fig. 1 in Diversity Of Mandibular Morphology In Some Carnivorans

Fig. 1. Right mandible of Gray seal (Halichoerus grypus, USNM 51488) in labial view showing the condyloid angle (= inclination of condyloid process to the alveolar line). The intersections of a horizontal axis starting from the lower alveolar edge of the canine through the posterior edge of the m1 alveolus (as indicated by line a), vertical axis from the posterior edge of m1 perpendicular to line a (line b) and an oblique axis from the junction of lines a and b to the tip of the condyloid process (line c) were used to define the condyloid angle.
