Maxillary and frontal sinuses in Eurasian Miocene hominoids: phylogenetic implications

The paranasal sinuses (maxillary, frontal, ethmoidal and sphenoidal) are cavities in the facial skeleton of vertebrates. The study of maxillary and frontal sinuses in Eurasian Miocene hominoids constitutes a very useful tool in phylogenetic analysis. In this work, the available evidence of these str...
