In the latest edition of their acclaimed book, renowned researchers Barry Berkovitz and Peter Shellis delve into the fascinating world of teeth and dentitions in non-mammalian vertebrates. This comprehensive survey covers the astonishing diversity of tooth forms among living fishes, amphibians, and reptiles, featuring descriptions of approximately 450 species from 170 families.
The authors examine the intricate relationships between tooth form, function, and feeding behaviors in non-mammalian vertebrates. Each chapter is accompanied by an exhaustive, up-to-date reference list, providing readers with a wealth of information on the attachment of teeth, dental hard tissues, and the evolution of tooth structure.
This edition highlights four critical areas of ongoing research: tooth development, tooth replacement, and the structure, formation, and evolution of dental hard tissues. These topics are of significant interest, as they provide valuable insights into the genetic changes underlying the evolution of teeth and jaws.
With over 650 images, including photographs from esteemed researchers and world-class collections, this book is a visual masterpiece. The inclusion of detailed descriptions and high-quality images makes it an indispensable resource for students, researchers, and professionals in the field of vertebrate biology and evolutionary biology.
Authored by internationally recognized experts in the field, this second edition of The Teeth of Non-Mammalian Vertebrates: Form, Function, Development and Growth reflects the resurgence of interest in non-mammalian vertebrates as experimental systems to understand genetic changes in tooth and jaw evolution.
