Molar Cervical Root Cross‐Sectional Morphology and Diet in Extant Catarrhines

The cervical root cross-section contains information regarding both the mechanical function of a tooth as well as conveying some aspects of dietary specialization, particularly for frugivorous catarrhines. This region provides a more nuanced understanding of dental adaptation along the folivore-frugivore continuum.

Abstract

The cervical root cross-section contains information regarding both the mechanical function of a tooth as well as conveying some aspects of dietary specialization, particularly for frugivorous catarrhines. This region provides a more nuanced understanding of dental adaptation along the folivore-frugivore continuum.
