@article{oai:aue.repo.nii.ac.jp:00000752, author = {河村, 善也}, journal = {愛知教育大学研究報告. 自然科学}, month = {Feb}, note = {text, A measuring method is described in order to give reliable and objective tooth measurements to Quaternary insectivore remains and recent comparative material. A revision of previous literature suggests that the measuring methods given there are mostly ambiguous in fixing direction of specimens and base lines for measurement. Hence, in this paper, a measured specimen is fixed with the axes of main cusps being vertical(Figs. 3 and 4). Then a base line is determined as the line connecting the apex of paracone to that of metacone in upper molars, the line tangential to the lingual face of the crown in lower molars, and the longitudinal axis of the crown mostly in the remaining teeth (teeth with an elliptical outline in occlusal view). The length and width of the crown are measured parallel and perpendicular to the base line respectively. The detailed procedures of the method proposed are also given in Figs. 5 to 7.}, pages = {31--42}, title = {日本産第四紀食虫類の歯の計測法}, volume = {42}, year = {1993} }
