• Probabilistic historical biogeography: new models for founder-event speciation, imperfect detection, and fossils allow improved accuracy and model-testing (2013, unknown): “ First,  there  is  a  rich  literature  comparing  species  abundances  in   fossil  and  living  assemblages  (e.g.,  Kidwell  2001;  Kidwell  2002;  Kidwell  &  Holland   2002;  Vermeij  &  Herbert  2004;  Moore,  Norman  &  Upchurch  2007;  Terry  2010;   Turvey  &  Blackburn  2011);  if  a…”
• Long-Term Stasis in Ecological Assemblages: Evidence from the Fossil Record* (2004, background): “…Foote 2000, Holland 2003), holding depositional context and taphonomic situation constant through time (isotaphonomy) (Behrensmeyer & Hook 1992, Behrensmeyer & Chapman 1993), and modeling time-averaging effects on the basis of modern analogs and “taphonomic control taxa” (Kidwell & Holland 2002).”
• Mass extinctions and macroevolution (2005, background): “Taxonomic standardization tends to reduce the intensity of major events relative to estimates from synoptic databases (e.g., Smith and Jeffery 1998; Kiessling and Baron-Szabo 2004; for an exception see Adrain and Westrop 2000), but such revisions rarely encompass the target clade’s ‘‘background’’…”
• SCALE AND HIERARCHY IN MACROEVOLUTION (2007, methodology): “Happily, recent developments in methods for analysing species-level phenotypic change dynamics in the fossil record bode well for future research in this area (e.g. Bush et al. 2002; Kidwell and Holland 2002; Roopnarine 2003, 2005; Hunt 2004; Hannisdal 2006).”
• Mammalian extinction, survival, and recovery dynamics across the Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary in northeastern Montana, USA (2014, background): “Although the assumption of a linear relationship between stratigraphic thickness and time is problematic in fl uvial depositional environments (Kidwell and Holland, 2002), it is less so on the time scales considered here (Kirchner et al., 2001).”
• Pulsed origination and extinction in the marine realm (2005, background): “…whether regional turnover pulses reflect true events, however, because they are often accompanied by stratigraphic gaps and facies shifts of just the kind that are predicted to lead to spurious pulses (Holland 1995, 1996, 2000; Behrensmeyer et al. 1997; Smith et al. 2001; Kidwell and Holland 2002).”
