Short description
Skull with colored elements
Full description
Skull of a Komodo dragon, Varanus komodensis, with bones colored and labelled to demonstrate skull anatomy.
Digital dissection and scene by Jaimi Gray (oVert team). 3D model produced from a CT scan of a Texas Natural History Collections specimen (tnhc:herpetology:95803). Segmentation and mesh files generated using VGStudio Max 3.4. Meshes further edited in Blender (version 2.80.75). Skull anatomy labelled by Jaimi Gray using Evans, Susan E. “The skull of lizards and tuatara.” Biology of the Reptilia 20 (2008): 1-347.
Modelling funded by the oVert TCN project at the University of Florida (NSF DBI-1701714) https://tinyurl.com/oVertwiki.
