Fig. 25From: Phylogenetic history influences convergence for a specialized ecology: comparative skull morphology of African burrowing skinks (Squamata; Scincidae)To the left, the orbitotemporal region of the neurocranium within the dermatocranium of T. brevipes, T. gracilis, S. alberti, and A. occidentalis from top to bottom in lateral view. The region is boxed in red. To the right, isolated orbitotemporal elements in lateral (left) and posterodorsal (right) views.
