Mass extinction in tetraodontiform fishes linked to the Palaeocene–Eocene thermal maximum [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2017 Integrative evolutionary analyses based upon fossil and extant species provide a powerful approach for understanding past diversification events and for assessing the tempo of evolution across the Tree of Life. Herein, we demonstrate the importance of integrating fossil and extant species for inferring patterns of lineage diversification that would ...
