Evolution of the sauropterygian labyrinth with increasingly pelagic lifestyles
- Abstract:
-
Sauropterygia, a successful clade of marine reptiles abundant in aquatic ecosystems of the Mesozoic, inhabited nearshore to pelagic habitats over >180 million years of evolutionary history [1]. Aquatic vertebrates experience strong buoyancy forces that allow movement in a three-dimensional environment, resulting in structural convergences such as flippers and fish-like bauplans [2 ; 3], as well as convergences in the sensory systems. We used computed tomographic scans of 19 sauropterygian...
