The osteology of Kisanganichthys casieri gen. and sp. nov., a small catervariolid fish from the Stanleyville Formation (Middle Jurassic), Kisangani, Democratic Republic of Congo, is studied in details. K. casieri gen. and sp. nov. has a pair of small triangular toothed lateral dermethmoids located at the symphysis op the upper jaw, the toothed premaxillae being more laterally positioned. The fr...

Both the cranial and postcranial osteology of Corydoras aeneus (Gill, 1858) is described based on the study of five adult specimens. The results were compared to the condition described for other loricarioid fishes. Most results corresponded with the expected pattern based on studies dealing with parts of the callichthyid osteology, although some differences were observed. One of these differen...

I Abstract Based on the description of this project, it aims to build an interactive custom based Web application that can be used to assist in recording the notes about bones under study. Therefore, this project particularly focuses on the integration of new web technologies and traditional Human Osteology. This system attempts to meet the special demands of Human Osteology. During the process...

The gecko genus Geckolepis, endemic to Madagascar and the Comoro archipelago, is taxonomically challenging. One reason is its members ability to autotomize a large portion of their scales when grasped or touched, most likely to escape predation. Based on an integrative taxonomic approach including external morphology, morphometrics, genetics, pholidosis, and osteology, we here describe the firs...
