E]cologically unique wild area in Springfield, located between Rt.78 and Mount View Rd., with trails to a deep basin and to a beautiful pond where wild turkeys, foxes, coyotes and colorful migrating birds have been spotted. It is an important part of the greenway linking Briant Park, Hidden Valley Park, and Watchung Reservation. The anatomical abnormality affecting the mandibular second incisor to first premolar molar teeth, involving abnormal tooth arrangement, fusion of the crowns and roots of adjacent teeth, and absence of normal periodontal and endodontic development ( Figure 7), may represent a developmental defect or an acquired and possibly neoplastic process. One possible explanation is that this is an odontoma, a type of hamartoma of mixed odontogenic epithelium and ectomesenchyme that includes dental hard tissue formation and in its compound form can contain variably differentiated dental-like structures including calcifying enamel and dentin ( 36). Histopathological analysis would be needed to confirm this suspicion, as determined by the presence of well-differentiated dentinal tissue including dentin, enamel matrix, odontogenic epithelium representing the enamel organ, and/or cementum ( 37). A loss of crown integrity or fracture line was observed in 693 (67.4%) teeth. Of these, 559 (80.7%) had blunt or rounded defect margins limited to the occlusal surfaces and were subjectively categorized as secondary to abrasive wear. The most frequently abraded teeth were the mandibular molar teeth, with 143 abraded teeth representing 66.2% of the total present mandibular molar teeth. This was followed by the maxillary ( n = 33) and mandibular canine teeth ( n = 32), representing 64.7 and 62.7% of their respective populations, then the mandibular premolar ( n = 64, 60%), maxillary premolar ( n = 59, 55.7%), maxillary molar ( n = 113, 52.5%), mandibular incisor ( n = 60, 45.5%), and maxillary incisor teeth ( n = 52, 34.9%). No teeth were categorized as having attritional wear because no overt tooth-on-tooth malocclusive trauma or changes were identified when the mouths were closed except for the specimen with the bulbously malformed right mandibular second incisor crown that was associated with buccal rotation of the right maxillary first and second incisor teeth.

Moloch horridus is named for the terrible Canaanite god called Moloch and horridus, meaning thorny or dreadful. They are so named because of their bizarre and imposing appearance.

Southeast Farallon Island (SEFI) is the largest island, with an area of 95.79 acres or 0.14970 square miles (0.3877km 2), and is the only inhabited one. The island is pyramidal in shape and 357 feet (109m) high. The peak, Tower Hill (actually a double peak consisting of Lighthouse Hill and Little Lighthouse Hill), is the location of a lighthouse, the Farallon Island Light. The large flat area in the southeast of the island is called Marine Terrace. Immediately south of it is Mussel Flat, about 100 feet (30m) by 400 feet (120m), which is cut off from the main island only during high tide. Quarry located in Springfield Township, Union County, New Jersey, US The Houdaille Quarry sits directly to the left of the Springfield dot marking the Hobart Gap, in the first Watchung MountainData analysis was performed using commercially available spreadsheet (Excel 365, Microsoft Co., Redmond, WA, USA) and statistical analysis software (GraphPad Prism 9, GraphPad Software, San Diego, CA, USA). The significance level ( p-value) for all analyses was set at α = 0.05. Categorical data was described as the frequency of occurrence. Numerical data was summarized with mean values listed ± one standard deviation from the mean. Fischer's exact test was used to investigate the relationship between pairs of categorical variables. Pearson's correlation coefficient was used to investigate correlations between numerical variables. Student's t-test was used to assess for differences in skull length, width, and index between known and suspected female specimens compared to the overall population, as well as to compare differences in root canal width in skulls with and without incompletely erupted teeth. One-way ANOVA with a post-hoc Tukey test was used to investigate differences in root canal width in skulls with varying degrees of mandibular symphyseal fusion. Results To the authors' knowledge, this is the first study to describe normal dental anatomy in the Tasmanian devil using intraoral radiography. Diagnostic imaging is always indicated and often critical for the diagnosis of many anatomical, developmental, periodontal, endodontic, traumatic, oncologic, and other pathologies affecting the dentition, alveolar bone, and bone of the jaws ( 16, 35). Dental radiographs provide clinically useful information that can inform surgical planning and decrease the risk of intraoperative complications. While no supernumerary or fused roots were identified in the present study, radiographic interpretation of root count and orientation can be more difficult due to the rotation of the premolar teeth, as well root convergence and summation in the maxillary fourth molar teeth. In this case, assessment of the tooth may be done based on macroscopic crown morphology and periodontal probing, but significant subgingival findings such as root convergence and dilacerations that are pertinent to extractions may require more advanced imaging such as medical or cone-beam computed tomography to understand the relevant anatomy more perfectly ( 16). As root dilacerations, a malformed mandibular canine tooth, and a collection of changes affecting the mandibular second incisor to the first premolar tooth were noted in different specimens, dental radiography should be included in baseline diagnostics when planning treatment of oral disease in Tasmanian devils. Island of St. James, 47 meters high, about 125 meters in diameter, 12,380 m 2 37°46′02″N 123°06′01″W / 37.767215°N 123.100275°W / 37.767215; -123.100275 Radiographically, the mandibular symphysis was found to undergo variable degrees of fusion across different specimens. This was subjectively categorized as complete fusion ( n = 10), partial fusion ( n = 13), and no evidence of fusion ( n = 4). One skull had undergone mandibular symphyseal separation and the mandibles were artificially joined with wire, and as such the degree of previous mandibular symphyseal fusion could not be determined.

Thorny devil teeth are modified for their ant specialist diet. Ants are relatively hard-bodied insects, with high levels of chitin. The mandibular teeth are modified to fit neatly between two maxillary teeth, creating a shearing apparatus. Thorny devils have also lost the anterior pleurodont teeth, reflecting their use of the tongue to capture prey, rather than the teeth. ( Witten, 1993) National Register Information System". National Register of Historic Places. National Park Service. March 13, 2009.Thorny devils can employ their complicated surface textures to direct water to their mouths for drinking. The base of each spine is surrounded by a deep interscalar groove that effectively collects water and these grooves interconnect to enable capillary movement of water along the body, even against the pull of gravity, as on the legs. These grooves continue onto the head and empty into the angle of the mouth for drinking. These lizards live in extremely arid regions and water condensation onto their bodies may be the most reliable and abundant form of water typically encountered.

Right now, the situation is far from (needing to) announce an evacuation,” Shmyhal said. “We must say that to announce the evacuation of any city not near the front lines, especially the capital, would not make any sense at present.” In the years following the discovery of the islands, during the maritime fur trade era, the islands were exploited by seal hunters, first from New England and later from Russia. The Russians maintained a sealing station in the Farallones from 1812 to 1840, taking 1,200 to 1,500 fur seals annually, though American ships had already exploited the islands. [15] The Albatross, captained by Nathan Winship, and the O'Cain, captained by his brother Jonathan Winship, were the first American ships sent from Boston in 1809 to establish a settlement on the Columbia River. In 1810, they met with two other American ships at the Farallon Islands, the Mercury and the Isabella, and at least 30,000 seal skins were taken. [16] [17] By 1818, the seals diminished rapidly until only about 500 could be taken annually and within the next few years, the fur seal was extirpated from the islands. Whether the northern fur seal or the Guadalupe fur seal were the islands' native fur seal is unknown, although the northern fur seal is the species that began to recolonize the islands in 1996.
