    abstract = "The origin of turtles is one of the most contentious issues in systematics with three currently viable hypotheses: turtles as the extant sister to (i) the crocodile–bird clade, (ii) the lizard–tuatara clade, or (iii) Diapsida (a clade composed of (i) and (ii)). We reanalysed a recent dataset that allied turtles with the lizard–tuatara clade and found that the inclusion of the stem turtle Proganochelys quenstedti and the ‘parareptile’ Eunotosaurus africanus results in a single overriding morphological signal, with turtles outside Diapsida. This result reflects the importance of transitional fossils when long branches separate crown clades, and highlights unexplored issues such as the role of topological congruence when using fossils to calibrate molecular clocks.",

    abstract = "Macroevolutionary forces, such as rare catastrophes, have repeatedly disrupted and reset the evolutionary trajectories of Earth's major organismal groups. The Cretaceous–Paleogene (K/Pg) extinction event, approximately 66 Ma, resulted in the demise of ∼75\% of all species at the time, yet despite its magnitude, many major organismal lineages successfully passed through this mass extinction. The evolutionary origins of modern birds (crown-group Aves) remain a subject of substantial debate, as they are often thought to have undergone their primary diversification following the K/Pg boundary. In this review, we summarize the various approaches that have been applied to understanding the timing of avian diversification. We examine the inferred divergence times derived from modern phylogenomic studies based on datasets comprising 50 to over 300 whole genomes. Additionally, we evaluate the factors contributing to the continued discrepancies in divergence time estimates. Furthermore, we discuss significant new fossil discoveries from the Late Jurassic and Late Cretaceous periods that reshape our understanding of key evolutionary events in early avian diversification. Taken together, the paleontological evidence increasingly supports a Cretaceous origin for many extant bird lineages, with the major burst of ordinal diversification likely occurring prior to the K/Pg boundary—concurrent with the early radiations of flowering plants, pollinating insects, mammals, fishes and other groups that characterized the Cretaceous Angiosperm Terrestrial Revolution.",
