Mecrowear of mammalian teeth as an indicator of diet |
|
| Authors: | A Walker H N Hoeck L Perez |
| Abstract: | Microwear details on teeth of two sympatric species of hyrax are correlated with major dietary differences observed in the wild. Grazing (Procavia john-stoni) and browsing (Heterohyrax brucei) species can be distinguished. The results show that diets of extinct species may be deduced from tooth microwear. |
