Figure 3.4. Cranium of Plesiadapis cookei (UM 87990). A, stereophotographic left lateral view. B, HRxCT left lateral view reconstruction shown without parallax. C, inset of lateral splanchnocranium. C’, enlargement of inset C. D, inset of basicranium. D’, enlargement of inset D. Hatches indicate broken surfaces.
