Dental topography of prosimian premolars predicts diet: A comparison in premolar and molar dietary classification accuracies (2024)
Journal Article
de Vries, D., M. Winchester, J., L. Fulwood, E., M. St. Clair, E., & M. Boyer, D. (2024). Dental topography of prosimian premolars predicts diet: A comparison in premolar and molar dietary classification accuracies. American Journal of Biological Anthropology, e24995. https://doi.org/10.1002/ajpa.24995

Objectives: This study tests whether (1) premolar topography of extant “prosimians” (strepsirrhines and tarsiers) successfully predicts diet and (2) whether the combination of molar and premolar topography yields higher classification accuracy than u...

Comparison of dental topography of marmosets and tamarins (Callitrichidae) to other platyrrhine primates using a novel freeware pipeline (2024)
Journal Article

Dental topographic metrics (DTMs), which quantify different aspects of the shape of teeth, are powerful tools for studying dietary adaptation and evolution in mammals. However, comparative samples of scanned mammal teeth suitable for analysis with D...

Comparison of dental topography of marmosets and tamarins (Callitrichidae) to other platyrrhine primates using a novel freeware pipeline (2024)
Journal Article

Dental topographic metrics (DTMs), which quantify different aspects of the shape of teeth, are powerful tools for studying dietary adaptation and evolution in mammals. Current DTM protocols usually rely on proprietary software, which may be unavailab...
