Phylogenetic Clustering of Origination and Extinction across the Late Ordovician Mass Extinction.
Mass extinctions can have dramatic effects on the trajectory of life, but in some cases the effects can be relatively small even when extinction rates are high. For example, the Late Ordovician mass extinction is the second most severe in terms of the proportion of genera eliminated, yet is noted fo...
