The typical skull morphology of otariids fall into two general characteristics: a short, mesocephalic skull observed primarily in the fur seals and a more dolichocephalic skull common in most sea lions. Subfamily separation of otariid seals was not supported. Instead, a separation of genus, ...

The quantitative analyses revealed different ontogenetic trajectories between non-adult and adult males in most variables, suggesting that the adult skull is not a scaled version of subadult skull. For instance, variables related with longitudinal dimensions decreased their allometric coefficients when the...
We analysed the cranial ontogeny of male Arctocephalus australis (Zimmermann, 1783) (N = 116), Arctocephalus gazella (Peters, 1875) (N = 69), and Arctocephalus tropicalis (Gray, 1872) (N = 51) to study skull growth and its allometric patterns in the genus. We used 15 ...
For the first time, congenital and acquired dental anomalies were comparatively diagnosed in skull samples from southern Brazil and nearby areas. The skulls and mandibles were accessed in the scientific collection of mammals of the Federal University of Santa Catarina, southern Brazil. Agenesis was ...
