Do cladistic and morphometric data capture common patterns of morphological disparity?
Palaeontology, Volume 58, Issue 3, Page 393-399, May 2015., 2015 Abstract The distinctly non‐random diversity of organismal form manifests itself in discrete clusters of taxa that share a common body plan. As a result, analyses of disparity require a scalable comparative framework. The difficulties of applying geometric morphometrics to disparity analyses of groups with vastly divergent body plans are overcome ...

The interglenoid tubercle of the atlas is ancestral to lissamphibians
Evolution &Development, Volume 26, Issue 1, January 2024.This figure shows our estimate of how the neck vertebrae have evolved including whether a special second vertebra (the axis) is present and whether the first vertebra has an interglenoid tubercle (TI). With data from modern developing frogs and fossils, we determined that the TI is ancestral to lissamphibians. Abstract Lissamphibians, represented today
