Extended Data Fig. 2: Impact of number of fossils per tree size on turnover rates.
From: Loss of macroevolutionary species fitness explains the rise and fall of clades
Posterior mean turnover rates (that is, μ/λ) based on 1000 posterior samples from the eFBD against the number of fossils per tree size (number of tips, both extant or extinct) for the 27 taxa studied here. With even a low percentage of fossils per tree size we already recover high rates of turnover. Enumeration of taxa, in order of appearance: 1) eurypterida, 2) dipnoi, 3) therocephalia, 4) sphenodontidae, 5) testudinata, 6) pterosauria, 7) dinosauria, 8) crocodylomorpha, 9) juglandaceae, 10) tetraodontiformes, 11) mauritiinae, 12) acanthuridae, 13) siganidae, 14) spheniscidae, 15) proboscidea, 16) brontotheriioidea, 17) cetacea, 18) zoarcoidei, 19) ruminantia, 20) sthenurinae, 21) folivora, 22) centrarchidae, 23) platyrrhines, 24) pinnipedia, 25) caninae, 26) equinae, 27) hominini.
