Abstract in brief

  • The study explores how three major mammal groups in North America responded differently to the KPg mass extinction, showing that their diversification trends were unique and not uniform.
  • Metatherians (marsupials) experienced a sudden increase in extinction rates right after the event, while multituberculates (an extinct group of rodent-like mammals) saw a halt in new species forming and later a decline in diversity.
  • Eutherians (placental mammals) went through high rates of both new species appearing and going extinct, highlighting that the impact of mass extinctions varies depending on each clade's specific circumstances and evolutionary responses.]

Un estudio publicado en @RSocPublishing ha descrito las tasas de extinción de los grupos de mamíferos durante la extinción K-T (hace 66 m.a.). Ningún grupo (marsupiales, euterios o multituberculados) sufrió una extinción tan masiva como los dinosaurios. https://t.co/7fY5ZiG6XE
