The origins of interactions between angiosperms and fruit‐eating seed dispersers have
attracted much attention following a seminal paper on this topic by T iffney (1984). This …

To discover interordinal relationships of living and fossil placental mammals and the time of
origin of placentals relative to the Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg) boundary, we scored 4541 …

Bats are among the most recognizable, numerous, and widespread of all mammals. But
much of their fossil record is missing, and bat origins remain poorly understood, as do the …

The Fossil Lake deposits of the Green River Formation of Wyoming, a remarkable early
Eocene Lagerstätte (51.98±0.35 Ma), have produced nearly 30 bat fossils over the last 50 …

Life history and behavioral traits are often difficult to discern from the fossil record, but
evolutionary rates of genes and their changes over time can be inferred from extant genomic …

Bats dispersed widely after evolving the capacity for powered flight, and fossil bats are
known from the early Eocene of most continents. Until now, however, bats have been …

Advances in morphological and molecular methods continue to uncover new information on
the origin and evolution of bats. Presenting some of the most remarkable discoveries and …

A new mammal fauna from the earliest Eocene of Le Clot (Corbières, Southern France) is
described. Some taxa identified there, such as Corbarimys hottingeri and Paschatherium …

Cette étude intègre des faunes inédites de chiroptères fossiles découvertes lors de
plusieurs campagnes de terrain réalisées en Afrique du Nord. Il s' agit de localités …

Mechanisms governing taxon replacement and subsequent radiation remain little
understood. We examine possible forcing factors in a turnover of subfamily dominance seen …
