Anatomical Descriptions of The Nasal Cavity of The Aquatic and Non-Aquatic Birds

This study attested the anatomical and morphometrical descriptions of the nasal cavity in duck, goose as the aquatic birds and quail, dove as the non-aquatic birds. This study elucidated in the aquatic birds that the nasal cavity remarkable increased in width caudally and had relatively larger na...
