For our latest article out this week in the Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, we micro CT scanned 40 individual Italian Fire Salamanders (Salamandra salamandra gigliolii) and segmented their crania from these scans. We’ve deposited all of the reconstructed crania on Phenome10k.org. View the 3D models or download all mesh data for these scans using the link below.
