Jugal Kishore Pattnaik
The jugal is a skull bone found in most reptiles, amphibians and birds. In mammals, the jugal is often called the malar or zygomatic bone, zygomatic. It is connected to the quadratojugal and maxilla, as well as other bones, which may vary by species. Anatomy The jugal bone is located on either side of the skull in the Ocular scales, circumorbital region. It is the origin of several masticatory muscles in the skull. The jugal and Lacrimal bone, lacrimal bones are the only two remaining from the ancestral circumorbital series: the prefrontal, postfrontal, postorbital, jugal, and lacrimal bones. During development, the jugal bone originates from dermal bone. In dinosaurs This bone is considered key in the determination of general traits in cases in which the entire skull has not been found intact (for instance, as with dinosaurs in paleontology). In some dinosaur genera the jugal also forms part of the lower margin of either the antorbital fenestra or the infratemporal fenestra ...

As a professor of anatomy at the University of Jena (1855–1873) and at the University of Heidelberg (1873–1903), Karl Gegenbaur was a strong supporter of Charles Darwin's theory of organic evolution, having taught and worked, beginning in 1858, with Ernst Haeckel, eight years his junior. Gegenbaur's book ''Grundzüge der vergleichenden Anatomie'' (1859; English translation ''Elements of Comparative Anatomy'' by Francis Jeffrey Bell, 1878) became the standard textbook, at the time, of evolutionary morphology (biology), morphology, emphasizing that structural similarities among various animals provide clues to their evolutionary history.
