Laboury A, Stubbs T, Wolniewicz A, Liu J, Scheyer T, Jones M, et al.
Evolution . 2024 Sep; 79(1):38-50. PMID: 39283731
The iconic marine raptorial predators Ichthyosauria and Eosauropterygia co-existed in the same ecosystems throughout most of the Mesozoic Era, facing similar evolutionary pressures and environmental perturbations. Both groups seemingly went...

Beccari V, Villa A, Jones M, Ferreira G, Glaw F, Rauhut O
Anat Rec (Hoboken) . 2024 Jul; 308(3):844-867. PMID: 39039747
Late Jurassic rhynchocephalians from the Solnhofen Archipelago have been known for almost two centuries. The number of specimens and taxa is constantly increasing, but little is known about the ontogeny...

Title P, Singhal S, Grundler M, Costa G, Pyron R, Colston T, et al.
Science . 2024 Feb; 383(6685):918-923. PMID: 38386744
Snakes and lizards (Squamata) represent a third of terrestrial vertebrates and exhibit spectacular innovations in locomotion, feeding, and sensory processing. However, the evolutionary drivers of this radiation remain poorly known....

Mezzasalma M, Streicher J, Guarino F, Jones M, Loader S, Odierna G, et al.
Evolution . 2023 Jun; 77(9):1930-1944. PMID: 37288542
Evolutionary shifts in chromosome compositions (karyotypes) are major drivers of lineage and genomic diversification. Fusion of ancestral chromosomes is one hypothesized mechanism for the evolutionary reduction of the total chromosome...
5.
Button D, Porro L, Lautenschlager S, Jones M, Barrett P
Curr Biol . 2023 Jan; 33(3):557-565.e7. PMID: 36603586
The extent to which evolution is deterministic is a key question in biology, with intensive debate on how adaptation and constraints might canalize solutions to ecological challenges. Alternatively, unique adaptations...

Jones M, Benson R, Skutschas P, Hill L, Panciroli E, Schmitt A, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2022 Jul; 119(30):e2114100119. PMID: 35858401
Salamanders are an important group of living amphibians and model organisms for understanding locomotion, development, regeneration, feeding, and toxicity in tetrapods. However, their origin and early radiation remain poorly understood,...

Isip J, Jones M, Cooper N
Proc Biol Sci . 2022 Feb; 289(1969):20212493. PMID: 35193399
Performance traits are tightly linked to the fitness of organisms. However, because studies of variation in performance traits generally focus on just one or several closely related species, we are...

Dutel H, Groning F, Sharp A, Watson P, Herrel A, Ross C, et al.
J Exp Biol . 2021 Jan; 224(Pt 5). PMID: 33504585
Cranial morphology in lepidosaurs is highly disparate and characterised by the frequent loss or reduction of bony elements. In varanids and geckos, the loss of the postorbital bar is associated...

Guillerme T, Cooper N, Brusatte S, Davis K, Jackson A, Gerber S, et al.
Biol Lett . 2020 Jul; 16(7):20200199. PMID: 32603646
Analyses of morphological disparity have been used to characterize and investigate the evolution of variation in the anatomy, function and ecology of organisms since the 1980s. While a diversity of...

Scheyer T, Spiekman S, Sues H, Ezcurra M, Butler R, Jones M
R Soc Open Sci . 2020 Apr; 7(3):192179. PMID: 32269817
Correctly identifying taxa at the root of major clades or the oldest clade-representatives is critical for meaningful interpretations of evolution. A small, partially crushed skull from the Late Triassic (Norian)...
