Opportunities and challenges presented by cryptic bryophyte species.
MAM Renner - Telopea, 2020 - openjournals.library.sydney.edu.au
Cryptic bryophyte species exhibit a decoupling in the degree of morphological and
molecular divergence, as a result of different processes, from recent divergence to stasis …

Why are bryophytes so rare in the fossil record? A spotlight on taphonomy and fossil preservation
AMF Tomescu, B Bomfleur, AC Bippus… - Transformative …, 2018 - Elsevier
The paucity of the bryophyte fossil record has often been blamed on low preservation
potential. To address this perception, we (1) summarize data demonstrating that bryophytes …

Widespread mimicry and camouflage among mid-Cretaceous insects
The avoidance of detection by predators and parasites is critical to survival. Two complex
mechanisms for such avoidance are mimicry and camouflage, with fossils providing …
