“…Hanson (1919) restated the concept of sternal bands as formulated by Rathke. The more recent studies have confirmed the concept as developed by Rathke (Gladston and Wakeley, 1932;Chen, 1952aChen, ,b, 1953Bryson, 1945;Klima, 1968Klima, , 1973Klima, , 1987. The present extension of this concept to the abdomen would provide a similar method of closure of both the ventral thoracic and abdominal walls.…”

“…It has long been recognized that, relative to eutherians, marsupials accelerate the development of certain structures such as the tongue, the bones around the oral apparatus, and the bones and muscles of the forelimb (e.g., Hill and Hill, 1955;Lee and Cockburn, 1985;Klima, 1987;Maier, 1987Maier, , 1993Maier, , 1999Tyndale-Biscoe and Renfree, 1987;Hughes and Hall, 1988;Nelson, 1988;Cockburn, 1989;Filan, 1991;Clark and Smith, 1993;Gemmell and Selwood, 1994, and references therein). This advancement is interpreted as an adaptive response to the functional requirements placed on the neonate by the marsupial life history.…”

“…13). In all didelphids, the first rib is short and robust since it is subject to tension forces, and it develops an especially strong connection with the manubrium (Klima, 1987). Some important muscles, such as Mm.…”

“…Although the study of the postcranial morphology in metatherians has received notable attention, most of it was focused on functional, ontogenetic, and descriptive frames, but not phylogenetics (e.g., Coues, 1869;Flower, 1885;Elftman, 1929;Barnett and Napier, 1953;Mann-Fischer, 1953;Jenkins and Weijs, 1979;Klima, 1987;White, 1990;Pridmore, 1992;Marshall and Sigogneau-Russell, 1995;Lunde and Schutt, 1999;Argot, 2001Argot, , 2002Argot, , 2003aArgot, , 2003bArgot, , 2004aArgot, , 2004bMartin and Mackay, 2003;Muizon and Argot, 2003; but see Szalay, 1994;Szalay and Sargis, 2001;Horovitz and Sá nchezVillagra, 2003). The study of Horovitz and Sá nchez-Villagra (2003) contains numerous postcranial characters treated in high-level taxonomic categories that are interpreted in a cladistic context.…”
