Global Diversity Patterns are Explained by Diversification Rates and Dispersal at Ancient, not Shallow, Timescales

Explaining global species richness patterns is a major goal of evolution, ecology, and biogeography. These richness patterns are often attributed to spatial variation in diversification rates (speciation minus extinction). Surprisingly, prominent studies of birds, fish, and plants have reported high...
