Marsupial mole - Wikipedia They are small burrowing marsupials that anatomically converge on fossorial placental mammals, such as extant golden moles (Chrysochloridae) and extinct epoicotheres
Itjaritjari (Southern Marsupial Mole) skeleton - Sketchfab Skeleton of a marsupial mole (Notoryctes typhlops) from the collection of the South Australian Museum (SAMA-M4750) 3D model produced from a microCT scan using Materialise Mimics (v 24)
Functional morphology of marsupial moles (Marsupialia: Notoryctidae . . . Marsupial moles (genus Notoryctes) are the most highly specialised burrowing marsupials The specialisations of the appendicular musculo-skeletal system of the marsupial moles are extensive and widespread; the major alterations are concentrated in, but not restricted to, the forelimb
The 3-dimensional anatomy of the North-Western Marsupial Mole . . . Abstract - The 3-D skeletal images obtained from reconstruction of CT scans and X-rays, and soft-tissue images produced by MRI, provide invaluable information of the internal and gross anatomy of the north-western marsupial mole (Notoryetes caurinus)
Unearthing the secrets of Australia’s most enigmatic and . . . - Science Marsupial moles are small (14 to 18 cm long and weighing 40 to 70 g) and have adaptations to their subterranean environment including eye reduction, modified fore- and hindlimbs, a rostral horny shield, and fused cervical vertebrae to assist in burrowing (5, 6)

Uncovering the ancestry of the marsupial mole - Science News The marsupial mole has remained elusive and has challenged scientists to correctly classify its ancestry Name two obstacles that have prevented scientists from understanding these animals
Unlocked: the genome of the mysterious marsupial mole Native to Australia’s north-western deserts, marsupial moles are known as wonders of evolution Cloaked in lush golden fur, their tiny pink vestigial eyes are covered by skin, and their powerful claws allow them to ‘swim’ – rather than tunnel – through desert sand
