I'm now open access! academic.oup.com/mbe/advance… P.S. Feed me your published time trees. @MolBioEvol
Since we're talking about it again, why don't authors provide links to their results? Why don't publishers provide the space to host the data? (specifically timetree files with branch lengths in years 😉)
Water leaks in a server room are never good. Site is down BUT our Beta site is alive and running! Great excuse to give it a try. TimeTree.temple.edu
Very excited to add this study to the next build of TimeTree! Congrats on the new paper!
The biogeographic study of Curimatidae in the Neotropics is out at @Ecol_Evol - Late Cretaceous origin in the proto-Orinoco-Amazonas with several transitions to upland basins (esp. Brazilian Shield) at multiple times during Paleogene & Neogene. Open Access bit.ly/3c1rLDD
