Craniofacial Fluctuating Asymmetry in Cross River Gorillas ( Gorilla gorilla diehli )

Amy Joy Spies, Kate McGrath, Amandine B. Eriksen, Jason S. Massey et autres

OBJECTIVES: Craniofacial fluctuating asymmetry (FA) in gorillas has been linked to environmental and/or genetic stress. Prolonged population declines increase levels of inbreeding, leading to developmental instability, which can manifest as FA. Among gorillas studied to date, craniofacial FA levels are highest in …

Facial asymmetry tracks genetic diversity amongGorillasubspecies

Kate McGrath, Amandine B. Eriksen, Daniel García‐Martínez, Jordi Galbany et autres

Mountain gorillas are particularly inbred compared to other gorillas and even the most inbred human populations. As mountain gorilla skeletal material accumulated during the 1970s, researchers noted their pronounced facial asymmetry and hypothesized that it reflects a population-wide chewing side preference. However, …

The impediment of sex on taxonomy: A case study in macaque monkeys

Brittany Kenyon‐Flatt, Amandine B. Eriksen, Evan Simons, Noreen von Cramon‐Taubadel

Previous work indicates that the taxonomic signal of a given skeletal element largely depends on the degree of sexual dimorphism present. In other words, it may be the case that sexual dimorphism confounds taxonomy. Here, we investigate this phenomenon in the relatively …

The effect of hand preference on skeletal asymmetry in human limbs

Amandine B. Eriksen, Noreen von Cramon‐Taubadel

The study of asymmetry offers valuable insight into the biomechanical factors, such as hand preference, that influence development of the human body. Previous studies of human skeletal asymmetry often lack known handedness data and tend to presume right‐handedness without specifically analyzing upper …

Comparisons of Forelimb Muscular Anatomy in Humans, Macaques, and Chimpanzees: An Evolutionary Perspective

Brittany Kenyon, Amandine B. Eriksen, Joyce E. Sirianni

The forearm extensor muscles are physiologically organized into three functional groups; one group is made up of muscles that extend and abduct or adduct the hand at the wrist. Two of these muscles are Extensor Carpi Radialis Longus (ECRL) and Extensor Carpi …

A Comparative Study of Leg Musculature in Humans and Non‐human Primates and its Evolutionary Implications

Amandine B. Eriksen, Brittany Kenyon, Joyce E. Sirianni

In humans, the lateral compartment of the leg consists of the fibularis longus (FL) and fibularis brevis (FB) muscles, which originate from the lateral shaft of the fibula. These two muscles serve to plantar flex and evert the foot. While FL inserts …

The evolutionary origin and population history of the grauer gorilla

Matthew W. Tocheri, René Dommain, Shannon C. McFarlin, Scott E. Burnett et autres

Gorillas living in western central Africa (Gorilla gorilla) are morphologically and genetically distinguishable from those living in eastern central Africa (Gorilla beringei). Genomic analyses show eastern gorillas experienced a significant reduction in population size during the Pleistocene subsequent to geographical isolation from …
