Cryptic species as a window into the paradigm shift of the species concept
C Fišer, CT Robinson, F Malard - Molecular Ecology, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
The species concept is the cornerstone of biodiversity science, and any paradigm shift in the
delimitation of species affects many research fields. Many biologists now are embracing a …

Rates of dinosaur body mass evolution indicate 170 million years of sustained ecological innovation on the avian stem lineage
Large-scale adaptive radiations might explain the runaway success of a minority of extant
vertebrate clades. This hypothesis predicts, among other things, rapid rates of morphological …
