Description

Table 4. Order of Krogman region fusion for the placentals and marsupials compared to the Krogman pattern (1930), ordered chronologically, starting with the region to fuse first, based on ectocranial analysis. Order calculated from the average percentage of fusion across all sutures of the region for adult only specimens.
