Quantification of microanatomical traits. Cranial profile (red) of a lacertid lizard with skull roof cross sections (turquoise) through premaxilla (pm1/2), nasal (n1/2), frontal (f1/2), and parietal bones (p1/2). Medial view (a) of a sagittal section, isolated cross-sections (b), and single cross section (f2) as processed with ImageJ and BoneJ (c) to measure compactness and thickness. Example skulls: Gallotia stehlini ZMB 29084 (a), Darevskia mixta ZMB 44583 (b, c)
