Enormous temporal fossae for very strong jaw muscles, formed by just one of the reptilian jaw muscles, which has now become the mammalian masseter. |
Rostrum dilated towards its anterior end, compressed and carinate beneath the large presphenoid fossae. |
On the cranial surface of the pinna elevations correspond to the concha and to the fossae 792 of the helix and antihelix. |
If one classifies CSF leaks according to location they may be found in the anterior, middle or posterior cranial fossae. |
The capitate processes are small and visible through the supratemporal fenestrae dorsally, fitting within fossae in the postorbitals. |
The distance between the temporal ridges about four-fifths the width of the cranium at the fossae. |
