The Basal Penguin (Aves: Sphenisciformes) Perudyptes devriesi and a Phylogenetic Evaluation of the Penguin Fossil Record (2010, background): “A scarcity of early Oligocene fossils has also been commented on in other marine clades such as cetaceans (e.g., Fordyce, 2003; Uhen and Pyenson, 2007).”
Uncovering the diversification history of marine tetrapods: ecology influences the effect of geological sampling biases (2011, background): “…relatively neglected, with the significant exceptions of Permo-Triassic Russian tetrapods (Benton et al. 2004), Cenozoic mammals (e.g. Alroy 2000; Uhen & Pyenson 2007; Marx 2008; Marx & Uhen 2010), anomodont therapsids (Fröbisch 2008), pterosaurs (Butler et al. 2009, 2011b) and dinosaurs (Wang…”
Reconstructing Body Size in Extinct Crown Cetacea (Neoceti) Using Allometry, Phylogenetic Methods and Tests from the Fossil Record (2011, background): “We suggest that the absence of Miocene mysticetes larger than 1000 cm may be real, given the thorough sampling from this time period (Uhen and Pyenson 2007) and because the presence of skeletal elements from fin or blue whale-sized mysticetes (2200– 3000 cm in length) would be readily recognized in…”
Best Practices for Justifying Fossil Calibrations (2011, background): “To date, few studies have integrated databases of fossil occurrences with measurements of rock record bias at small taxonomic or geographic scales (Holland 2003; Benton et al. 2004; Uhen and Pyenson 2007; Marx 2009) and never for the purpose of developing time priors.”
