Table 1 in Divergent paterns of cranial suture fusion in marsupial and placental mammals

Table 1. Sutures and synchondroses (collectively referred to as sutures) and their corresponding Krogman region (1930) analysed ectocranially in this study, established using Goswami et al. (2013) and coined based on the articulating bones (Rager et al. 2014).
