Papers in Palaeontology · 2015 Direct specialist anatomical paper Relevance: Direct genus representative D. valenciennesi
Micro-CT reveals a mixture of ancestral and derived endocranial features, including a preserved otoconial mass. Comparisons suggest changes in sensory function and activity through lungfish evolution.
eLife · 2022 Major comparative research Relevance: Comparative dataset includes Dipterus
Compares 12 lungfish endocasts using 17 measurements. Different sensory regions vary independently, showing that endocranial evolution was uneven rather than a single uniform change.
