Can you hear me now? A comparative survey of pinniped auditory apparatus morphology

Over the past century research on the morphology of the auditory apparatuses of pinnipeds, which include Phocidae (true seals), Otariidae (sea lions and fur seals), and Odobenidae (walruses) is extremely limited, in comparison to other Carnivora.  Although, the auditory region and surroundi...

A comparative survey of pinniped auditory apparatus morphology Koper, Lindsey Koretsky, Irina Rahmat, Sulman Carnivores Pinnipedia Auditory Bulla Over the past century research on the morphology of the auditory apparatuses of pinnipeds, which include Phocidae (true seals), Otariidae (sea lions and fur seals), and Odobenidae (walruses) is extremely limited, in comparison to other Carnivora.  Although, the auditory region and surrounding basicranial are areas that are evolutionarily conservative, most literature is unclear due to mixed terminology, inaccurate information, and indistinct, outdated illustrations.  The lack of adequate and current studies demonstrates the need for compiling morphological information of the auditory region of modern carnivores in relation to hearing.  Auditory terminology will be explored to show morphological comparisons and naming practices among the carnivoran families.  By streamlining accurate terminology with straightforward illustrations, the behavioral information gleaned from auditory morphological structures will be clearer even among the diverse members of Carnivora.  This initial assessment will detail the limited information in prior research on the hearing adaptations for transitional semiaquatic carnivores. This review will establish the adaptive patterns (from land to sea) in the basicranial morphology of early pinnipeds, especially in phocids.  Publishing House "Akademperiodyka" of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine 2021-01-04 Article Article application/pdf https://ojs.akademperiodyka.org.ua/index.php/Zoodiversity/article/view/128 10.15407/zoo2021.01.063 Zoodiversity; Vol. 55 No. 1 (2021): Zoodiversity Zoodiversity (Vestnik Zoologii); Том 55 № 1 (2021): Zoodiversity 2707-7268 2707-725X 10.15407/zoo2021.01 en https://ojs.akademperiodyka.org.ua/index.php/Zoodiversity/article/view/128/69 Copyright (c) 2021 Zoodiversity
