The macroevolutionary dynamics of pharyngognathy in fishes fail to support the key innovation hypothesis
Abstract Key innovations, traits that provide species access to novel niches, are thought to be a major generator of biodiversity. One commonly cited example of key innovation is pharyngognathy, a set of modifications to the pharyngeal jaws found in some highly species-rich fish clades such as cichl...
