The evolution of high-crowned cheek teeth (hypsodonty) in herbivorous mammals during the
late Cenozoic is classically regarded as an adaptive response to the near-global spread of …

Extant terrestrial biodiversity arguably is driven by the evolutionary success of angiosperm

The evolutionary success of beetles and numerous other terrestrial insects is generally
attributed to co-radiation with flowering plants but most studies have focused on herbivorous …

Many scarab beetles produce rigid projections from the body called horns. The exaggerated
