The rich diversity of morphology and behavior displayed across primate species provides an
informative context in which to study the impact of genomic diversity on fundamental …

The peculiar mammalian fauna that inhabited Afro‐Arabia during the Paleogene first came
to the attention of the scientific community in the early part of the twentieth century, when …

In the tradition of GG Simpson's classic work, Kenneth D. Rose's The Beginning of the Age of
Mammals analyzes the events that occurred directly before and after the mysterious KT …

With genomic data, alignments can be assembled that greatly increase the number of
informative sites for analysis of molecular divergence dates. Here, we present an estimate of …

In recent years, multiple technological and methodological advances have increased our
ability to estimate phylogenies, leading to more accurate dating of the primate tree of life …

Unique among animals, humans eat a diet rich in cooked and nonthermally processed food.
The ancestors of modern humans who invented food processing (including cooking) gained …

A clade's evolutionary history is shaped, in part, by geographical range expansion,
sweepstakes dispersal and local extinction. A rigorous understanding of historical …

Paleontological and neontological systematics seek to answer evolutionary questions with
different data sets. Phylogenies inferred for combined extant and extinct taxa provide novel …

The Jebel Qatrani Formation of northern Egypt has produced Afro-Arabia's primary record of
Paleogene mammalian evolution, including the world's most complete remains of early …

In 1967 GG Simpson described three partial mandibles from early Miocene deposits in
Kenya that he interpreted as belonging to a new strepsirrhine primate, Propotto. This …
