Fig. 1: Morphological and species diversity across representative families in our dataset.The alternative text for this image may have been generated using AI.

Plots of the first two phylogenetic principal component axes demonstrate how morphological and species diversity may be somewhat uncoupled across families: a high in both; b high species diversity, narrow morphospace; c low species diversity, broad morphospace; d low in both. n indicates our sampling relative to the total species diversity of each family (latter number). Blue dots represent individual species. Grey hexagons show density of all of species in our dataset. Photos represent each family: a Smilisca baudinii, b Rana clamitans, c Aubria subsigillata, and d Bombina orientalis.
