Short project description & main objectives:
Aspects of skull shape and size often vary between males and females of a species as a result of sexual selection. These differences are not uniform between species, however, reflecting the influence of other aspects of biology. This project will investigate sexual dimorphism in the skull morphology of bandicoots from across Australia and New Guinea using CT scans and 3D morphometric software.
