Serial disparity in the carnivoran backbone unveils a complex adaptive role in metameric evolution

Figueirido et al. use a 3D geometric morphometric approach to study functional among-species disparity in the vertebral column of Carnivora, as well as assessing the effect of different sampling methods on homology. Disparity is generally higher in more caudal regions, compared to more cranial regio...
