Sectors Olf Pros Mes Rhomb

Early juvenile 0.66 0.91 0.87 0.81
Late juvenile 0.28 0.71 0.46 0.46

Calculated ratios of partial brain volume to partial endocast volume (pBV-pEV) for early embryos (Crocodylus acutus), juveniles (Caiman crocodilus) and adults (Caiman crocodilus and larger Crocodylus niloticus) divided into four major sectors: Olf—olfactory, Pros—prosencephalic, Mes—mesencephalic and Rhomb—rhombencephalic
