Fresh ink!

We look at how the skulls of rock-wallabies change with size and how size influences jaw anatomy and biting ability

The tiniest species seem to be particularly good at biting

But this review isn't just about skulls. We show how phylogenetic tests of allometry can be a problem when size correlates with phylogeny. As one reviewer said, it's like throwing the baby out with the bathwater! @DrEmSherratt @WeisbeckerLab

[D. Rex Mitchell @DRexMitchell]

Several years in the making with two of the biggest brains in the field! @WeisbeckerLab @DrEmSherratt

We unpack the who, the what, the where, the when, and the how of mammalian skull proportions and how they change with size across species.
