Proceedings. Biological sciences - 1 Mar 2025

Abstract excerpt
Incomplete taxon sampling due to underestimation of present-day biodiversity biases diversification analysis by favouring slowdowns in speciation rates towards the recent time. For instance, in diversification dynamics studies in Crocodylia, long-term low net-diversification rates and slowdowns in speciation rates have been suggested to characterize crocodylian evolution. However, crocodylian cryptic diversity...
