Zusammenfassung: | "An essential introduction to the paleobiology of animal body size, locomotion, and feeding. How do we use fossils to reconstruct the size of prehistoric animals and how they moved and fed? Drawing on a rich inventory of South American Miocene fossils, Form and Function in Vertebrate Paleobiology examines different aspects of functional morphology and how they are tested by paleontologists, anatomists, and zoologists. Beginning with a review of various methodologies to interpret fossils, the authors turn to the main concepts important to functional morphology and give examples of each. They conclude by showing how functional morphology enables a dynamic, broadscale reconstruction of the life of prehistoric animals during the South American Miocene"-- "An essential introduction to the paleobiology of animal body size, locomotion, and feeding.Paleobiology is the branch of evolutionary biology involved in the reconstruction of the life histories of extinct organisms.
