Buccal roof arena partially ornamented with -c -. 23 bilateral, transverse, parallel ruffled ridges of densely packed, short papillae; these ridges never meet medially with the contralateral ones, and the central region of the arena remains smooth with some scattered pustulations; laterally, each ridge ends in a hand-like flap papilla that recurves medially; these flaps are large in the middle section, and gradually decrease in size rostral and caudally. Overall, ridges are 250–350 µm long and 90–130 µm wide. Dorsal velum unfortunately damaged in SEM images. - - - - \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/03/F8/52/03F8526CA606FF9FFB88F8A6D216F973.xml b/data/03/F8/52/03F8526CA606FF9FFB88F8A6D216F973.xml deleted file mode 100644 index d7c10b1a530..00000000000 --- a/data/03/F8/52/03F8526CA606FF9FFB88F8A6D216F973.xml +++ /dev/null @@ -1,168 +0,0 @@ - - - -Stranger things: on the novel buccopharyngeal anatomy and functional morphology of ‘ sand-eating’ Malagasy tadpoles (Anura: Mantellidae: Mantidactylus) - - - -Author - -Henrique, Pedro - - - -Author - -Dias, Santos -Leibniz Institut zur Analyse des Biodiversitätswandels, Zoologisches Museum Hamburg, Zentrum für Taxonomie und Morphologie, Martin-Luther-King-Platz 3 20146 Hamburg, Germany & Naturhistorisches Museum der Burgergemeinde Bern, Bernastrasse 15, CH- 3005 Bern, Switzerland - - - -Author - -Florencia - - - -Author - -Candioti -Unidad Ejecutora Lillo (CONICET - FML), 4000, San Miguel de Tucumán, Tucumán, Argentina - - - -Author - -Wassersug, Richard -Department of Cellular and Physiological Sciences, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC V 6 T 1 Z 3, Canada - - - -Author - -Lukas, Paul -Institute of Zoology and Evolutionary Research, Friedrich-Schiller-University Jena, Jena, Germany - - - -Author - -Targino, Mariane -Diretoria de Coleções, Museu Nacional, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Quinta da Boa Vista, 20940 - 040, Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil - - - -Author - -Glos, Julian -Institute of Zoology, Universität Hamburg, Hamburg, Germany - - - -Author - -Wheeler, Ward C. -Division of Invertebrate Zoology, American Museum of Natural History, 200 Central Park West, New York, NY, 10024, USA - - - -Author - -Hertwig, Stefan -Naturhistorisches Museum der Burgergemeinde Bern, Bernastrasse 15, CH- 3005 Bern, Switzerland - - - -Author - -Croưini, Angelica -CIBIO, Centro de Investigação em Biodiversidade e Recursos Genéticos, InBIO Laboratório Associado, Campus de ºairão, Universidade do Porto, Campus de ºairão, 4485 - 661 ºairão, Portugal & BIOPOLIS Program in Genomics, Biodiversity and Land Planning, CIBIO, Campus de ºairão, 4485 - 661 ºairão, Portugal - - - -Author - -Haas, Alexander -Leibniz Institut zur Analyse des Biodiversitätswandels, Zoologisches Museum Hamburg, Zentrum für Taxonomie und Morphologie, Martin-Luther-King-Platz 3 20146 Hamburg, Germany - -text - - -Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society - - -2024 - -2024-10-18 - - -202 - - -2 - - -1 -13 - - - - -https://doi.org/10.1093/zoolinnean/zlae127 - -journal article -10.1093/zoolinnean/zlae127 -0024-4082 - - - - - - -Mantidactylus zolitschka - - - - - - -Oral disc: -Oral configuration is described and illustrated in - -Randrianiaina -et al. -(2011a - -) and reproduced here ( -Fig. 1 -).
