Fig. 5

The replacement progress illustrated by teeth at different replacement stages in the maxilla of Jeholosaurus. Elements in the CT reconstructions are color coded as follows: functional maxillary teeth, yellow; replacement teeth, cyan. (A, F, K) rM13 in the early juvenile IVPP V15719; (B, G, L) lM10 in the early juvenile IVPP V15719; (C, H, M) rM7 in the late juvenile IVPP V12529; (D, I, N) lM9 in the late juvenile IVPP V15719; (E, J, O) lM10 in the subadult IVPP V15717. A-E, teeth in mesial and distal view; F-J, teeth in lingual view; K-O, teeth in cross-sections. The imaginary lines indicate the position of the cross-sections
