Title: Mecrowear of mammalian teeth as an indicator of diet. Author: Walker A, Hoeck HN, Perez L. Journal: Science; 1978 Sep 08; 201(4359):908-10. PubMed ID: 684415. Abstract: Microwear details on teeth of two sympatric species of hyrax are correlated with major dietary differences observed in the wild. Grazing (Procavia john-stoni) and browsing (Heterohyrax brucei) species can be distinguished. The results show that diets of extinct species may be deduced from tooth microwear.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
