The Emergence of Whales Evolutionary Patterns in the ~ Journal of Mammalogy 804 1999 The Emergence of Whales ends with excellent summaries about our knowledge to date of early whale evolution The book is a very ggod source of informatiom on the early whales and is necessary reading for anyome involved in whale paleobiology and evolution
Whales originated from aquatic artiodactyls in the Eocene ~ This indicates that aquatic life in this lineage occurred before the origin of the order Cetacea The first ten million years of whale evolution are well documented in the fossil record but their
The Emergence of Whales Evolutionary Patterns in the ~ Research in whale origins is now in an explosive phase with a cascade of discoveries adding to our understanding of the evolutionary pattern and a suite of new techniques being applied to address new questions The objective of this volume is to provide a snapshot of this explosion The volume paints the scene with a broad brush

Skeletons of terrestrial cetaceans and the relationship of ~ Modern members of the mammalian order Cetacea whales dolphins and porpoises are obligate aquatic swimmers that are highly distinctive in morphology lacking hair and hind limbs and having
Whale OriginsConquering the Seas Science ~ Along the now vanished shores of Tethys some 50 million years ago a fourlegged mammal ambled into the water and began one of the most dramatic morphological transformations in vertebrate evolution the emergence of whales Cetaceans are traditionally classified into the suborders Odontoceti toothed whales and dolphins Mysticeti baleen whales and Archaeoceti a morphological grade of extinct whales known only from the Eocene that represent the transition from land dwellers to the two
The origin and early evolution of whales macroevolution ~ The origin of whales order Cetacea from a fourfooted land animal is one of the best understood examples of macroevolutionary change This evolutionary transition has been substantially elucidated by fossil finds from the Indian subcontinent in the past decade and a half
Whale Origins Science ~ All of these predate work in the The Emergence of Whales In fact chapter 6 of the Thewissen volume 3 explicitly supports the idea that artiodactyls are more closely related to cetaceans than are perissodactyls on the basis of a maximum parsimony analysis of morphological data
