ABSTRACT The social and economic roles of goat farming in Northeastern Brazil, allied to the fact that the use of goat middle ear ossicles for research and human ear surgery training has not yet been proposed, justify the study of their applicability as an experimental model. The middle ears of 19 goats (Capra aegagrus hircus) from the bone collection of the Laboratory and Didactic Anatomy Museum of Domestic and Wild Animals of the Federal University of Vale do São Francisco (UNIVASF) were dissected. The malleus, incus, and stapes were evaluated regarding their macroscopic morphology and biometry (length, width, and height). Ossicle morphology was similar to sheep, human, and bovine morphology. The malleus was 1.3 times heavier and 2.2 times longer than the incus, and 9.0 times heavier and 3.7 times longer than the stapes. The size relationship was positive between the stapes and the malleus and negative between the stapes and the incus. It is concluded that the middle ear size and the anatomical similarities with human ossicles make goats a useful model for experimental scientific studies, reconstructive surgery practice of the ossicular chain, and human ear surgery training.

The genus Rhizoprionodon comprises seven species of sharks occurring in the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Oceans, the species are small and medium-sized animals attaining about 150 cm, inhabiting coastal waters, estuaries and brackish waters and feeding mainly on mollusks, crustaceans and small fish. In Brazil the two species are found Rhizoprionodon porosus and lalandi. The use of morphometric approaches has limitations for this group due to lack of anatomical landmarks, since they have a continuous form without angles. This study will analyze the chondrocranium a structure that is considered species-specific. The study aims to verify the hypothesis suggested in the literature of two populations of the species R. porosus off northeastern Brazil. One corresponds to the northern coast of the Northeast (RN) and the other to the eastern coast of this region (PE). For that we performed a comparative morphometric study of the chondrocranium of R. porosus between the indicated areas using shape and cluster analyses. Thus, there were differences both for adult and juvenile phases by regions of capture. In conclusion, there is indeed a difference between chondrocranium from Pernambuco and Rio Grande do Norte as showed by approaches used.
