Biases with the generalized euclidean distance measure in disparity analyses with high levels of missing data
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-05)
The Generalized Euclidean Distance (GED) measure has been extensively used to conduct morphological disparity analyses based on palaeontological matrices of discrete characters. This is in part because some implementations ...
Extended implied weighting
(Wiley, 2013-07)
Several extensions to implied weighting, recently implemented in TNT, allow a better treatment of data sets combining morphological and molecular data sets, as well as those comprising large numbers of missing entries (e.g. ...
Discrete and morphometric traits reveal contrasting patterns and processes in the macroevolutionary history of a clade of scorpions
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2017-04)
Many palaeontological studies have investigated the evolution of entire body plans, generally relying on discrete character-taxon matrices. In contrast, macroevolutionary studies performed by neontologists have mostly ...
A new traversodontid cynodont with a peculiar postcanine dentition from the Middle/Late Triassic of Namibia and dental evolution in basal gomphodonts
(Cambridge University Press, 2020-09)
We here present a new gomphodont cynodont from the Ladinian/Carnian Upper Omingonde Formation of central Namibia. Etjoia dentitransitus gen. et sp. nov. is a medium-sized (skull length of 88.5mm) omnivorous gomphodont ...
