Where should we expect to find Early bursts of trait evolution A case study using Carnivora
Meeting Abstract 58.1 Saturday, Jan. 5 Where should we expect to find Early bursts of trait evolution? A case study using Carnivora. SLATER, GJ*; FRISCIA, AR; Smithsonian Institute; Univ. of California, Los Angeles gslater@ucla.edu George Gaylord Simpson famously postulated that higher taxa originated as adaptive radiations – early bursts of lineage and phenotypic evolution that slowed through […]
