This paper integrates phylogenomic data and fossil records to refine the evolutionary timescale and classification of beetles, revealing a late Carboniferous origin and Cretaceous diversification.

This study applies a Bayesian fossil birth-death model to conodont data, showing reduced phylogenetic uncertainty when combining morphology and stratigraphic data.

The paper defends the Bayesian Brownian Bridge method against criticism, showing its estimates of angiosperm clade ages are valid despite concerns about fossil data scarcity and sampling bias.
