Ontogenetic variations of the head of Aptenodytes forsteri (Aves, Sphenisciformes): muscular and skull morphology

The emperor penguin (Aptenodytes forsteri) is the largest extant penguin among living species breeding in winter, at Antarctic high latitudes. Despite several studies made on this species, musculature and skeletal anatomy are barely known, especially in non-adult specimens. To address this shortfall...
