Popis: Newton et al. use microCT data and geometric morphometric analyses to explore the processes underlying the convergently evolved skulls of thylacine and gray wolf. Similarities in growth trajectory are contrasted by differential developmental event timing, with origins of morphometric similarity constrained by developmental modules and embryonic tissue origins.
