Fig. 17.4 in Chapter 17: Gigantism, Dwarfism, and Cope's Rule: "Nothing in Evolution Makes Sense without a Phylogeny"

Fig. 17.4. Left, phylogeny of the Equidae, with emphasis on the North American record. Right, temporal distribution of the Equidae, with relative size indicated by skull length derived from toothlength dimensions (see appendix 17.2 and methodology discussion in text). Branches indicated by A, B, and C represent bodysize increase (giantism); D, E, F, and G represent bodysize decrease (nanism).

Fig. 17.2 in Chapter 17: Gigantism, Dwarfism, and Cope's Rule: "Nothing in Evolution Makes Sense without a Phylogeny"

Fig. 17.2. (a) The most recent phylogenetic hypothesis of varanid relationships based on mtDNA (Ast, 2001) compared to (b) a compilation of the hypotheses of bodysize evolution of varanids (taken from Pianka, 1995). The maximum total lengths for the species were retrieved from King and Green, 1999, and Mertens, 1942; these are listed in appendix 17.1. Note the following terminal clades were collapsed for the sake of brevity: Varanus salvator togianus, V. salvator bivittatus, V. indicus, and V. panoptes (horni).

Fig. 16.5 in Chapter 16: A Revised Dental Nomenclature for Fossil Horses

Fig. 16.5. Occlusal aspect of the premolars of F:AM 71115. The protocone of the P3 and the P4 each bear double protoconal spurs. The protocone of the P2 is linked with the paraconule in the position of one of these protoconal spurs, suggesting by serial homology that one of the pair of spurs is a preprotocrista. The other spur might be a plication. The solid arrow points toward the cheek; the hollow arrow points forward toward the symphysis.

Fig. 14.3 in Chapter 14: The Basicranial and Posterior Cranial Anatomy of the Families of the Toxodontia

Fig. 14.3. Schematic representation of the interpretation of ectotympanic bulla development. Crosssection through the ventral cranium, midline of the petrosal. Stippling indicates (basi)occipital; diagonal lines indicate petrosal; horizontal lines indicate squamosal; solid black indicates ectotympanic. A, ringlike ectotympanic supports tympanum; B, medial and lateral edges of ectotympanic develop; C, medial edge begins to inflate beneath ventral surface of petrosal and lateral moiety begins to expand, forming external auditory meatus; D, ventral inflation proceeds faster than medial edge development, causing appearance of medial recurving; E, ectotympanic bulla covers petrosal, recurved medial edge of ectotympanic lies ventral to, but does not fuse with, petrosal, giving appearance of septum.
