Figure 3From: Ancestral feeding state of ruminants reconsidered: earliest grazing adaptation claims a mixed condition for CervidaeHierarchical cluster diagrams. Microwear hierarchical cluster based on scratch and pit densities features of the reference tooth positions M2/m2 (A). Mesowear hierarchical cluster based on the tooth positions m1–m3/M1–M3 and percentage high occlusal relief, percentage round cusps and percentage blunt cusps of Procervulus ginsburgi with extant species (B). Shared symbols: UPPER CASE = LEAF-BROWSER, UPPER CASE WHIT ASTERISK = FRUIT-BROWSER, lower case = grazer, Mixed case with asterisk = Fossil species. Exclusive microwear symbols: Non-underlined Mixed case (Capital first) = Seasonal Mixed feeder, Underlined Mixed case (Capital first) = Non-seasonal Mixed feeder, mixed Case (lower First) = mountain Grazer. Exclusive mesowear symbols: Mixed Case (Capital first) = Mixed Feeder. Extant wear data from [4] and [14].Back to article page
