Environmental drivers of body size evolution in crocodile-line archosaurs

Stockdale and Benton use a new phylogeny of living and extinct crocodilians and their closest relatives to model evolutionary rates and identify the relative influences of extrinsic and intrinsic drivers of evolution in this order. Their results show that environmental factors played a significant r...
