Three-dimensional renderings of the dentition of a subadult Moschognathus whaitsi (AM 4950). Reproduced from Lafferty et al. (2026: fig. 23)
----
My contributions to the paper were the 3-D segmentation of the dentition, writing the descriptions of the dentition and tooth replacement rates, and creating the relevant figures (figs 1, 2, 23–27) and tables (tables 1 –4).
