Extant species fail to estimate ancestral geographical ranges at older nodes in primate phylogeny

A clade’s evolutionary history is shaped, in part, by geographical range expansion, sweepstakes dispersal and local extinction. A rigorous understanding of historical biogeography may therefore yield insights into macroevolutionary dynamics such as

Biases with the Generalized Euclidean Distance measure in disparity analyses with high levels of missing data

Publikováno v: Palaeontology

The Generalized Euclidean Distance (GED) measure has been extensively used to conduct morphological disparity analyses based on palaeontological matrices of discrete characters. This is in part because some implementations allow the use of morphologi

Are we reaching gender parity among Palaeontology authors?

Women remain underrepresented in almost all areas of STEM, especially at senior levels, with palaeontology being no exception. There is a widespread perception that the situation is improving, and that it is simply a matter of time before this improv

The patterns and modes of the evolution of disparity in Mesozoic birds

Autor: Min Wang, Chi Zhang, Zhonghe Zhou, Graeme T. Lloyd

Publikováno v: Proc Biol Sci

The origin of birds from non-avian theropod dinosaurs is one of the greatest transitions in evolution. Shortly after diverging from other theropods in the Late Jurassic, Mesozoic birds diversified into two major clades—the Enantiornithes and Ornith

Analyses of morphological disparity have been used to characterize and investigate the evolution of variation in the anatomy, function and ecology of organisms since the 1980s. While a diversity of methods have been employed, it is unclear whether th
