Abstract

We investigated molar progression as an index of age in the swamp wallaby (Wallabia bicolor) by examining a small sample of known-age specimens. We demonstrate a strong relationship between age and molar index in W. bicolor [log10(age, in days) = (MI + 4.6864)/2.2179, R2 = 0.93], which will facilitate more detailed investigation of this species.
