Analysis of dental pathologies in the Pliocene herbivores of Langebaanweg and their palaeoenvironmental implications

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

This study evaluates the extent of dental pathologies in several ungulate species from the Pelletal Phosphate Member (PPM) at Langebaanweg, and uses this analysis, along with stable isotope analyses, to obtain fresh insight into the local palaeoenvironment during the Early Pliocene.
