Cretaceous tetrapod fossil record sampling and faunal turnover: Implications for biogeography and the rise of modern clades

Cretaceous tetrapod fossil record sampling and faunal turnover: Implications for biogeography and the rise of modern clades

We use newly compiled data on global occurrences of Cretaceous lepidosaurs, mammals and crocodylomorphs, and existing data on dinosaurs, to investigate faunal turnover and fossil record heterogeneity. Statistically significant relationships between many clade-specific fossil record sampling proxies...
