3D reconstruction of a baboon (Papio hamadryas) skull with different anatomical regions highlighted by color shading: the orbital region (yellow in upper left), face excluding orbital region (in pink, upper left), eurocranium (purple, middle), and face and cranial base (in cross section, green, lower right). These regions, and combinations thereof, can be used to construct and evaluate hypotheses about the functional and developmental basis of phenotypic integration (Richtsmeier, Weiss).

Three-dimensional reconstruction of the skull of Hadropithecus stenognathus, a subfossil lemur from Madagascar. The white portions are original fossils found in 1899, red colored areas are the frontal fragments found in 2003, blue regions are mirror imaged from opposite side of this skull, and the gray section was reconstructed with wax from a 3D stereolithography print. For more information, see Ryan et al. (2008).
