Weiss B, Dollman K, Choiniere J, Browning C, Botha J
J Anat . 2024 Oct; PMID: 39462998
Orthosuchus stormbergi was a small-bodied crocodyliform, representative of a diverse assemblage of Early Jurassic, early branching crocodylomorph taxa from the upper Elliot Formation of South Africa. The life history of...

Anat Rec (Hoboken) . 2024 Jan; 307(4):1613-1633. PMID: 38282465
Gomphodonts form a Triassic radiation of small to medium-bodied (<0.5-2.5 m in length) quadrupedal cynodonts characterized by labiolingually expanded gomphodont postcanines. They were the dominant cynodont group in Middle and...

Botha J, Weiss B, Dollman K, Barrett P, Benson R, Choiniere J
Curr Biol . 2023 Sep; 33(19):4261-4268.e3. PMID: 37714148
Crocodilians grow slowly and have low metabolic rates similar to other living reptiles, but palaeohistology indicates that they evolved from an ancestor with higher growth rates. It remains unclear when...

Chapelle K, Botha J, Choiniere J
R Soc Open Sci . 2023 Jun; 10(6):221565. PMID: 37325591
The earliest sauropodomorphs were small omnivores (less than 10 kg) that first appeared in the Carnian. By the Hettangian, early branching sauropodomorphs (EBSMs) were globally distributed, had variable postures, and...

Rayner R, Butler R, Kammerer C, Choiniere J
PeerJ . 2022 Dec; 10:e14355. PMID: 36545384
The Burgersdorp Formation of South Africa is a richly fossiliferous rock sequence at the top of the Permian-Triassic Beaufort Group and is known for its abundance of Early-Middle Triassic vertebrate...

Evers S, Joyce W, Choiniere J, Ferreira G, Foth C, Hermanson G, et al.
Nat Commun . 2022 Oct; 13(1):5807. PMID: 36220806
The labyrinth of the vertebrate inner ear is a sensory system that governs the perception of head rotations. Central hypotheses predict that labyrinth shape and size are related to ecological...

PeerJ . 2022 Sep; 10:e13918. PMID: 36172498
Owen, 1854 is an iconic basal sauropodomorph dinosaur from the Early Jurassic of southern Africa. Over 200 specimens have been referred to this taxon, spanning the entire ontogenetic series from...

Jenkins K, Meyer D, Lewis P, Choiniere J, Bhullar B
J Anat . 2022 Sep; 241(6):1441-1458. PMID: 36168715
The rapid radiation and dispersal of crown reptiles following the end-Permian mass extinction characterizes the earliest phase of the Mesozoic. Phylogenetically, this early radiation is difficult to interpret, with polytomies...

Botha J, Choiniere J, Benson R
Curr Biol . 2022 Sep; 32(20):4501-4507.e2. PMID: 36084648
Sauropod dinosaurs include the largest land animals to have walked the earth, mostly weighing 10-70 tons (e.g., Sander et al. and Carballido et al.). Osteohistology suggests that derived physiological traits...

Dollman K, Choiniere J
Anat Rec (Hoboken) . 2022 May; 305(10):2766-2790. PMID: 35595547
Living crocodylomorphs have an ossified secondary palate with a posteriorly positioned choana that enables their semi-aquatic, predatory ecology. In contrast, the earliest branching members of Crocodylomorpha have an open palate...
