Although the ray-finned fishes are named for their bony, segmented lepidotrichia (fin rays), we are only beginning to understand the morphological and functional diversity of this key vertebrate structure. Fin rays support the fin web, and their mate

Significance To explain how limbs evolved from fins, paleontologists have traditionally studied the endoskeleton. Here, we provide a comparative analysis of the other skeletal system of fins, the dermal skeleton. We describe dermal ray anatomy for 3

New trace fossil material from Late Pleistocene glaciolacustrine varves of the Connecticut River Valley, New England, USA represent the first evidence of freshwater sculpin in glacial Lake Hitchcock. Paleobiogeographic data constrain the timing of th

SUMMARY Fin ray structure in ray-finned fishes (Actinopterygii) largely defines fin function. Fin rays convert the muscle activity at the base of the fin to shape changes throughout the external fin web. Despite their critical functional significance

In this study, I compare the morphology from the pectoral fin rays from the benthic longhorn sculpin (Myoxocephalus octodecimspinosus) to those from a species that does not use its fins for substrate contact, the yellow perch (Perca flavescens). I us
