Phylogenetic relationships and time-calibration of the South American fossil and extant species of southern beeches (Nothofagus)
(Polish Academy of Sciences. Institute of Paleobiology, 2018-12)
The genus Nothofagus is considered as one of the most interesting plant genera, not only for the living species but also due to the fossil evidence distributed throughout the Southern Hemisphere. Early publications postulated ...
The fossil record of spiders revisited: implications for calibrating trees and evidence for a major faunal turnover since the Mesozoic
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-02)
Studies in evolutionary biology and biogeography increasingly rely on the estimation of dated phylogenetic trees using molecular clocks. In turn, the calibration of such clocks is critically dependent on external evidence ...
Molecular dating and diversification of the South American lizard genus Liolaemus (subgenus Eulaemus) based on nuclear and mitochondrial DNA sequences
(Oxford University Press, 2012-04)
The temperate South American lizard genus Liolaemus is the one of the most widely distributed and species-rich genera of lizards on earth. The genus is divided into two subgenera, Liolaemus sensu stricto (the 'Chilean ...
Big, bad, and beautiful: phylogenetic relationships of the horned frogs (Anura: Ceratophryidae)
(Soc Brasileira Herpetologia, 2014-12-01)
The horned frog family, Ceratophryidae, currently comprises three genera and 12 extant species, distributed from the Caribbean lowlands to the Pampean grasslands. Horned frogs are fossorial species that are remarkable in ...
Oldest known marine turtle? A new protostegid from the Lower Cretaceous of Colomb
Recent studies suggested that many fossil marine turtles might not be closely related to extant marine turtles (Chelonioidea). The uncertainty surrounding the origin and phylogenetic position of fossil marine turtles impacts ...

Big, bad, and beautiful: phylogenetic relationships of the horned frogs (Anura: Ceratophryidae)
(Soc Brasileira Herpetologia, 2015)
Use of simultaneous analyses to guide fossil-based calibrations of pinaceae Phylogeny

300 million years of diversification: elucidating the patterns of orthopteran evolution based on comprehensive taxon and gene sampling
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2015-12)
Orthoptera is the most diverse order among the polyneopteran groups and includes familiar insects, such as grasshoppers, crickets, katydids, and their kin. Due to a long history of conflicting classification schemes based ...
What happened in the South American Gran Chaco?: Diversification of the endemic frog genus Lepidobatrachus Budgett, 1899 (Anura: Ceratophryidae)
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2018-06)
The Chaco is one the most neglected and least studied regions of the world. This highly-seasonal semiarid biome is an extensive continuous plain without any geographic barrier, and in spite of its high species diversity, ...
