Is there room for punctuated equilibrium in macroevolution?
... Instead, pulses estimated from model-fits may reflect ‘jumps’ between higher-level niche space or adaptive zones, within which whole clades or groups of species may cluster [37–40]. The observation that groups of species cluster around different phenotypic optima [41] says nothing about whether indi ...
