Reassessment of the phylogenetic relationships of the late Miocene apes Hispanopithecus and Rudapithecus based on vestibular morphology
Late Miocene great apes are key to reconstructing the ancestral morphotype from which
earliest hominins evolved. Despite consensus that the late Miocene dryopith great apes …

New insights on hip bone sexual dimorphism in adolescents and adults using deformation-based geometric morphometrics
Morphological variation of the human pelvis, and particularly the hip bone, mainly results from
both female-specific selective pressure related to the give birth of large-headed newborns, …
