An update on our MS about the #nonsidentifiability of trait-dependent #diversification models ( #SSE ). Bad news: SSEs are non-identifiable. Good news: it's not problematic. Even better news: it can improve inference! :)

How did we lose our tail? A simple question.. but it wasn't really asked before! We discovered a plausible scenario for the genetic mechanism that led to tail loss. Amazing that such a big change may have been caused by such a small genetic event. nature.com/articles/s4158… Bo Xia
