Biomechanical analyses of Cambrian euarthropod limbs reveal their effectiveness in mastication and durophagy

Durophagy arose in the Cambrian and greatly influenced the diversification of biomineralized defensive structures throughout the Phanerozoic. Spinose gnathobases on protopodites of Cambrian euarthropod limbs are considered key innovations for shell-crushing, yet few studies have demonstrated their e...
