Cranial osteogenesis in Monodelphis domestica (Didelphidae) and Macropus eugenii (Macropodidae).

abstract：:Analysis of lateral and dorsoventral radiographic films shows that ingestion, transport, and mastication in Pedetes capensis (Rodentia) are cyclic and their movement patterns are essentially similar for the three food types offered. During the ingestion cycle, closing of the mouth is accompanied by a backward translat...
