Fig. 6 in Comparative Morphology Of The Internal Nasal Skeleton Of Adult Marsupials Based On X-Ray Computed Tomography

Fig. 6. Coronal CT images showing the packing of endo- and ectoturbinals (char. 14). (A) turbinals are relatively loosely packed (char. 14.0), Caluromys philander, C330 (AMNH 95526); (B) turbinals are complexly branching or convoluted elements that are densely packed creating a tight mazelike pattern, especially around the ossified nasal septum (char. 14.1), Potorous tridactylus, C440 (AMNH 65337). Both scale bars equal 5 mm. Abbreviations: Ecto, ectoturbinal; Endo, endoturbinal; NPM, nasopharyngeal meatus; ONS, ossified nasal septum; PTL, posterior transverse lamina; SER, sphenethmoid recess.
