...These studies demonstrate that P1 elements of ozarkodinid conodonts, including the genus Polygnathus, are acting as occluding pairs (Nicoll 1987; Purnell & von Bitter 1992; Donoghue & Purnell 1999; Martínez-Pérez et al. 2016)....

...…per surface area scaling (Table DR1 in the GSA Data Repository1), meaning that we applied a functional load proportional in magnitude to surface area, therefore removing the effects of model size and providing a comparison of stress-strength performance based solely on shape (Dumont et al., 2009)....

...Polygnathus underwent a dramatic diversification in the Emsian, characterized by increasing the platform size, changes in the oral surface of the platform, and the inversion of the basal cavity (Yolkin et al., 1994)....

...…platforms coincides with the cross sections of adult forms that have been used to characterize the early evolution of Polygnathus through the Pragian–Emsian, i.e., P. pireneae, P. kitabicus, P. excavatus, P. gronbergi, P. nothoperbonus, and P. inversus (Yolkin et al., 1994, their figure 2) (Fig....

...The increase in platform size occurred gradually, both through ontogeny and phylogeny, followed by more subtle changes in oral morphology and in the basal cavity configuration (Yolkin et al., 1994; Mawson, 1998)....

...The species are considered in the order of their position within the phylogeny of Polygnathus presented by Yolkin et al. (1994), from primitive to derived....

...Microwear analysis, computed tomography, and finite element analysis can now be combined to interpret conodont taxonomy, stratigraphy, and phylogeny in terms of feeding ecology (Jones et al., 2012; Martínez-Pérez et al., 2014a)....

...The occlusal cycle of Polygnathus is comparable to the rotation cycle described for Gnathodus bilineatus (Martínez-Pérez et al., 2014a) and Wurmiella (Jones et al., 2012), which also show evidence of episodic separation of the opposed elements as part of the occlusal cycle....
