The Hypertrophy of the Tympanic Bulla in Three Species of Dasypodids (Mammalia, Xenarthra) from Argentina

The morphology and relative size of the tympanic bulla of three species of dasypodids from Argentina, Chaetophractus villosus, C. vellerosus and Zaedyus pichiy, were studied. The bulla was observed to be morphologically similar and evidently hypertrophied in the three species. The degree of hypertro...
