Journal ArticleDOI
Out of the Tropics: Evolutionary Dynamics of the Latitudinal Diversity Gradient
TL;DR: A global analysis of genera and subgenera of marine bivalves over the past 11 million years supports an “out of the tropics” model, in which taxa preferentially originate in the Tropics and expand toward the poles without losing their tropical presence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Larval ecology of marine benthic invertebrates: paleobiological implications
David Jablonski,Richard A. Lutz +1 more
TL;DR: Studies of the larval ecology of fossil organisms can contribute greatly to the understanding of such roles by allowing us to race effects on evolutionary time scales.
Journal ArticleDOI
Background and Mass Extinctions: The Alternation of Macroevolutionary Regimes
TL;DR: Comparison of evolutionary patterns among Late Cretaceous marine bivalves and gastropods during times of normal, background levels of extinction and during the end-Cretaceous mass extinction indicates that mass extinctions are neither an intensification of background patterns nor an entirely random culling of the biota.
Journal ArticleDOI
Marine latitudinal diversity gradients: Tests of causal hypotheses
TL;DR: A database of the geographic ranges of 3,916 species of marine prosobranch gastropods living on the shelves of the western Atlantic and eastern Pacific Oceans, from the tropics to the Arctic Ocean, finds diversity gradients are strikingly similar despite many important physical and historical differences between the oceans.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sommers,Peter J. Wagner,A. Webber +25 more
TL;DR: A new database of this kind for the Phanerozoic fossil record of marine invertebrates is introduced and four substantially distinct analytical methods that estimate taxonomic diversity by quantifying and correcting for variation through time in the number and nature of inventories are applied.
