Ancestral state reconstructions for basal skull length in Permian and Triassic cynodonts.
<p>Colored horizontal bars indicate ranges of tip taxa spanning more than one stratigraphic bin (e.g., <i>Procynosuchus</i>, <i>Cynosaurus</i>). Permian-Triassic boundary indicated by dashed line. Abbreviations: CiAZ, <i>Cistecephalus</i> Assemblage Zone; CynAZ, <i>Cynognathus</i> Assemblage Zone; DAZ, <i>Dicynodon</i> Assemblage Zone; LAZ, <i>Lystrosaurus</i> Assemblage Zone.</p
Cladograms subsampled from five stratigraphic bins for analysis of diversification rate shifts. A
<p>, <i>Tropidostoma</i> Assemblage Zone. <b>B</b>, <i>Cistecephalus</i> Assemblage Zone. <b>C</b>, <i>Dicynodon</i> Assemblage Zone. <b>D</b>, <i>Lystrosaurus</i> Assemblage Zone. <b>E</b>, <i>Cynognathus</i> Assemblage Zone. Gray branches represent ghost lineages for terminal taxa or clades that appear in a succeeding stratigraphic interval. Numbers at nodes represent <i>p</i>-values near or below 0.05 for the Ī<sub>1</sub> (top) and Ī<sub>2</sub> (bottom) statistics. Significant shifts are observed along the branch between the node of Eutherocephalia and non-<i>Scylacosuchus</i> eutherocephalians for the <i>Tropidostoma</i> AZ subsample (A), and a marginally significant shift is observed along the branch between Eutheriodontia and Eutherocephalia for the <i>Cistecephalus</i> AZ (B).</p

Traitgram of body size evolution in a global sample of Permian through Triassic eutheriodonts, approximating an āearly burstā Brownian process (EB) of trait evolution.
<p>Arrow denotes location of <i>Lystrosaurus</i> Assemblage Zone taxa along the time-axis. Graphic created using the <i>traitgram()</i> function in āpicante.ā</p
Spearman's rank correlation tests on clade rank (A, B) and patristic distance (C) versus maximum basal skull length for the global dataset of Middle Permian through Late Triassic eutheriodonts.
<p>Solid circles represent Permian taxa (therocephalian subcladeā=āblue; cynodont subcladeā=āgold), open diamonds represent Early Triassic <i>Lystrosaurus</i> Assemblage Zone (LAZ) taxa, and open circles represent Triassic post-LAZ taxa.</p
Ancestral state reconstructions for basal skull length in Permian and Triassic therocephalians.
<p>Colored horizontal bars indicate ranges of tip taxa spanning more than one stratigraphic bin. Note that significant decreases in mean sizes of major subgroups across the Permian-Triassic boundary (dashed line) were associated with the loss of large-bodied taxa and the survival of pre-existing small-bodied taxa or clades.
