Title Geometric morphometric analysis of sexual dimorphism in the avian lung
Description Avian lungs are the most efficient in the animal kingdom. With unidirectional airflow and a system of nine distinct air sacs, birds can support a highly aerobic lifestyle, enabling endothermy and flight. Investigating these structures not only improves our understanding of this vital biological function, but it also provides insights into functional differences between members of the same species.
