Global history of the ancient monocot family Araceae inferred with models accounting for past continental positions and previous ranges based on fossils
L Nauheimer, D Metzler, SS Renner - New Phytologist, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
The family Araceae (3790 species, 117 genera) has one of the oldest fossil records among

Eocene habitat shift from saline to freshwater promoted Tethyan amphipod diversification
Current theory predicts that a shift to a new habitat would increase the rate of diversification,
while as lineages evolve into multiple species, intensified competition would decrease the …
