This project examines the evolution of jaw structure in vertebrates transitioning from water to land. It focuses on how changes in jaw morphology relate to feeding mechanics and ecological adaptations during the fish-tetrapod transition.
The invasion of the land by vertebrates is one of the great transitions in the history of life.
Numerous fossils document the metamorphosis from aquatic, lobe-finned fishes to terrestrial tetrapods.
Anatomical and phylogenetic studies have focused on changes in the limbs and cranium during this transition; in contrast, the mandible has received little attention.
Furthermore, while comparative anatomy has been used to predict function and ecology in early tetrapods, these inferences have not been…
