⏱️ Can you stop the clock on #evolution?⏱️

Some taxa are more diverse, some are less. Our authors show that some lineages "evolve" to have disproportionately low diversity.

They call this Arrested Diversification🛑

Check out this new paper by @marciopie and me, where we assess how poorly-diversifying lineages are distributed spatially and phylogenetically.
