A geometric morphometric analysis of heterochrony in the cranium of chimpanzees and bonobos

Despite several decades of research, there remains a lack of consensus on the extent to which bonobos are paedomorphic (juvenilized) chimpanzees in terms of cranial morphology. This study reexamines the issue by comparing the ontogeny of cranial shape in cross-sectional samples of bonobos ( Pan pani...
