A late-surviving phytosaur from the northern Atlantic rift reveals climate constraints on Triassic reptile biogeography
BackgroundThe origins of all major living reptile clades, including the one leading to birds, lie in the Triassic. Following the largest mass...

Body size and life history shape the historical biogeography of tetrapods
Dispersal across biogeographic barriers is a key process determining global patterns of biodiversity as it allows lineages to colonize and diversify...
