Béon 1 rhinocerotids ecology: Tables

TABLE 1. Conversion of occlusal relief (OR) and cusp shape (CS) into a mesowear score depending on the method. ScoreA: extended mesowear (refined categories for CS and OR) giving scores between 1 and 17, based on the work of Winkler and Kaiser (2011); ScoreB: conversion of the classic original scoring from Fortelius and Solounias (2000) as proposed by (Rivals et al., 2007) into a score ranging from 0 to 3; Ruler: mesowear ruler developed by Mihlbachler et al. (2011), giving scores from 0 to 6.
