Mammals evolved in a systematically diverse world, amidst a dynamic geography that is at the root of the 6,500 species living today. Fossils of Mesozoic mammals, while rare and often incomplete, are key to understanding how mammals have evolved over more than 200 million years. Mesozoic mammals and their close relatives occur in a few dozen localities from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Bolivia, and Peru spanning from the Mid- Triassic to the Late Cretaceous, with some lineages surviving the cataclysmic end of the Cretaceous period, into the Cenozoic of Argentina. There are roughly 25 recognized mammalian species distributed in several distinctive lineages, including australosphenidans, multituberculates, gondwanatherians, eutriconodonts, amphilestids and dryolestoids, among others. With its focus on diversity, systematics, phylogeny, and their impact on the evolution of mammals, there is no similar book currently available. | | 出版日期 | Book 2021 | | 关键词 | Evolution Theory; Mammals Diversity; Mesozoic; Mesozoic Paleontology; South American Mammals | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-63862-7 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-63862-7Series ISSN 2197-9596 Series E-ISSN 2197-960X | | issn_series | 2197-9596 | | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2021 |
