• The fossilized birth–death process for coherent calibration of divergence-time estimates (2013, background): “At speciation, we arbitrarily assign one species descendant the label “right” and one descendant the label “left” to distinguish between the two lineages.”
• Origination and Extinction through the Phanerozoic: A New Approach (2003, background): “…cases of extensive pseudoorigination and pseudoextinction have been documented, for example, in latest Cambrian trilobites (Whittington 1954; Fortey 1983, 1989; Briggs et al. 1988; Edgecombe 1992), there are also events that are known to reflect abundant lineage origination and termination,…”
• The first half of tetrapod evolution, sampling proxies, and fossil record quality (2013, background): “…long understood (Darwin, 1859; Raup, 1972) that they have access to only a very small sample of the fossil record, and that the fossil record falls far short of a correct and unbiased view of all life that ever existed (Foote, 2001, 2003; Smith, 2007a; Benton et al., 2011; Smith and McGowan, 2011).”
• Pulsed origination and extinction in the marine realm (2005, methodology): “Real data must violate this assumption, but simulation studies show that the optimization method is fairly robust if the various taxa follow similar temporal patterns, all tending to show higher- or lower-than-average rates during the same stages (Foote 2001).”
• Macroevolutionary patterns in the evolutionary radiation of archosaurs (Tetrapoda: Diapsida) (2010, unknown): “Thirdly, it is becoming increasingly evident that diversity counts are strongly biased by the rock record, and intervals of high diversity are often merely those with a more complete fossil record than less diverse time periods (e.g. Peters & Foote 2001; Smith 2001; see Barrett et al .”
