Scientists in Argentina have discovered excellently preserved fossil remains of the oldest-known tadpole, the larval stage of a large frog species that lived alongside dinosaurs about 161 million ...
The upper molars have three roots while the lower molars have two roots. [1] General patterns of dental morphological evolution throughout human evolution include a reduction in facial prognathism, the presence of a Y5 cusp pattern, the formation of a parabolic palate and the loss of the diastema.

[1] The type species is B. ampinga, and common names assigned by the popular media to B. ampinga include devil frog, [2] devil toad, [3] and the ...
La Ferrassie 1's face shape could prove that they used their teeth as a tool because of their muzzle-shaped face. [4] In the past, the shape of the teeth has been correlated with the shape of the face and jaw. It was also discovered to be placed further forward in comparison to any other human evolution fossil.

Paleoanthropologists unearthed human fossils suggesting that the species left Africa at least 50,000 years earlier than previously thought. Oldest human fossils outside of Africa discovered in ...
Kermit the Frog meet Kermitops gratus, the most recent ancient amphibian to be identified after examination of a tiny fossilized skull that once sat unstudied in the Smithsonian fossil collection ...
The degree of tooth development found in the Jebel Irhoud hominins is similar to that of modern European children of the same age, but teeth roots develop faster than for modern humans (and slower than for apes and some other fossil hominids). Tooth crowns took a longer time to form than in modern humans. [31]
