Extended Data Fig. 1: Distribution of vertebrate body sizes and mortality rates across egg-laying and live-bearing taxa.

From: Fundamental constraints on vertebrate life history are shaped by aquatic–terrestrial transitions and reproductive mode

Extended Data Fig. 1

Distribution of egg-laying (turquoise) and live-bearing (orange) vertebrate a) body sizes, b) juvenile mortality, and c) adult mortality. Points are colored by reproductive mode. The number of species in each clade for which trait data is available is provided at the bottom of the panel.
