    Journal: Anat Histol Embryol; 1992 Jun; 21(2):112-7. PubMed ID: 1497139.
    Abstract:
    In the roe deer skull symmetrically arranged ossa interparietalia were found to develop from paired centers of ossification. Obliteration of the sutura interinterparietalis mostly started already late in prenatal life, whereas closure of the interparietal and the interparietoparietal sutures as a rule commenced around the second week post partum. A certain degree of variability with respect to the timing of sutural closure was observed. No synostosis occurred between the os parietale resp. os interparietale and the os supraoccipitale, so that even in old animals the sutura parieto- resp. interparietooccipitalis was always present.
