This study examines how two innovations in deep-sea dragonfishes affect their evolutionary rates and diversification patterns.

This study investigates how many discrete characters are needed for accurate Bayesian phylogenetic estimation, finding that 100-500 variable characters are sufficient for 20 taxa.

This paper retrieves ancient enamel protein sequences from a 21-24 Ma rhinocerotid, providing new phylogenetic insights into Rhinocerotidae diversification during the middle Eocene-Oligocene.

The paper examines the interaction between variable character acquisition bias and among-character rate variation in morphological phylogenetics, showing that different conditioning approaches lead to systematic biases in tree length and phylogenetic relationships.
