Echinoderm Morphological Disparity: Methods, Patterns, and Possibilities - Bradley (University of West Georgia) Deline - Bog

Echinoderms have been used to study the methodology of disparity analyses and potential biases as well as documenting the morphological patterns observed in clades through time. Combining morphological studies with phylogenetic analyses or other disparate data sets allows for the testing of detailed and far-reaching evolutionary hypotheses.
