From: Evolution of the bovid cranium: morphological diversification under allometric constraint
Whether examined by subfamily or tribe, bovid cranial morphospace shows high overlap and poor phylogenetic differentiation. The black + marks the reconstructed position of the most recent common ancestor of all extant bovids (root node in Fig. 1). The correspondence between colors and clades is the same as in Fig. 1.
