英文摘要Evolution of the definitive mammalian middle ear (DMME) as a textbook example in vertebrate evolution has been extensively studied during the last 200 years. Fossils provide the direct evidence on evolutionary stages of the DMME, but because of delicacy of the miniscule ossicles, unequivocal evidence about them has always been rare. Recent work on a stem therian mammal (124 million years old) shows presence of the surangular bone in the basal mammals as a primitive feature and potentially retained in the embryonic stage of some extant mammals. The work also proposed that the DMME and mammalian jaw evolved in a modular fashion. It started as a highly integrated complex in structures and functions, the two modules were regulated by similar developmental genetic mechanisms and eventually decoupled under natural selection so that the physical constraint the two modules imposed on each other was removed, allowing future improvement of each module for better function.
