  • The Fossil Calibration Database, A New Resource for Divergence Dating 
    Ksepka, Daniel T.; Parham, James F.; Allman, James F.; Benton, Michael J.; Carrano, Matthew T.; Cranston, Karen A.; Donoghue, Philip C. J.; Head, Jason J.; Hermsen, Elizabeth J.; Irmis, Randall B.; Joyce, Walter G.; Kohli, Manpreet; Lamm, Kristin S.; Leehr, Dan; Patané, José S. L.; Polly, P. David; Phillips, Matthew J.; Smith, N. Adam; Smith, Nathan D.; van Tuinen, Marcel; Ware, Jessica L.; Warnock, Rachel C. M. (2015)
    Fossils provide the principal basis for temporal calibrations, which are critical to the accuracy of divergence dating analyses. Translating fossil data into minimum and maximum bounds for calibrations is the most important, ...
  • From Card Catalogs to Computers: Databases in Vertebrate Paleontology 
    Uhen, Mark D.; Barnosky, Anthony D.; Bills, Brian; Blois, Jessica; Carrano, Matthew T.; Carrasco, Marc A.; Erickson, Gregory M.; Eronen, Jussi T.; Fortelius, Mikael; Graham, Russell W.; Grimm, Eric C.; O'Leary, Maureen A.; Mast, Austin; Piel, William H.; Polly, P. David; Saila, Laura K. (2013)
    Data, whether images, measurements, counts, occurrences, or character codings, are a cornerstone of vertebrate paleontology. Every published paper, master's thesis, and doctoral dissertation relies on these data to ...
  • Giant boid snake from the Palaeocene neotropics reveals hotter past equatorial temperatures 
    Head, Jason J.; Bloch, Jonathan I.; Hastings, Alexander K.; Bourque, Jason R.; Cadena, Edwin A.; Herrera, Fabiany A.; Polly, P. David; Jaramillo, Carlos A. (2009)
    The largest extant snakes live in the tropics of South America and southeast Asia<U><SUP>1, 2, 3</SUP></U> where high temperatures facilitate the evolution of large body sizes among air-breathing animals whose body ...
  • Molecular phylogenetic and taxonomic status of the large-eared desert shrew <I>Notiosorex evotis</I> (Eulipotyphla: Soricidae) 
    Camargo, Issac; Álvarez-Castañeda, Sergio Ticul; Polly, P. David; Stuhler, John D.; Maldonado, Jesús E.; Esselstyn, Jacob (2022)
    Notiosorex is the only genus of shrews in North America with particular adaptations for arid habitats such as deserts. Five species currently are recognized in the genus, one of which, Notiosorex evotis, lives in deciduous ...
  • RETRACTION: Molecular phylogenetic and taxonomic status of the large-eared desert shrew Notiosorex evotis (Eulipotyphla: Soricidae), with the designation of a neotype (Retraction of Vol 102, art no GYAA178, 2021) 
    Camargo, Issac; Ticul Alvarez-Castaneda, Sergio; Polly, P. David; Stuhler, John D.; Maldonado, Jesus E. (2021)
  • Synthesizing and databasing fossil calibrations: divergence dating and beyond 
    Ksepka, Daniel T.; Benton, Michael J.; Carrano, Matthew T.; Gandolfo, Maria A.; Head, Jason J.; Hermsen, Elizabeth J.; Joyce, Walter G.; Lamm, Kristin S.; Patané, José S. L.; Phillips, Matthew J.; Polly, P. David; Van Tuinen, Marcel; Ware, Jessica L.; Warnock, Rachel C. M.; Parham, James F. (2011)
    Divergence dating studies, which combine temporal data from the fossil record with branch length data from molecular phylogenetic trees, represent a rapidly expanding approach to understanding the history of life. National ...
