Reassessing a cryptic history of early trilobite evolution
2022
James D. Holmes | Graham E. Budd
A reassessment of early trilobite phylogenetic relationships and palaeobiogeographic patterns suggests that a cryptic evolutionary history is unlikely for this group. The abrupt appearance of trilobites is likely to closely reflect their evolutionary origins, and may be explained by survivorship biases inherent in the fossil record.
