An request please?
Does anyone have access to November' 2009's Zoologica Scripta? I'd like a copy of the following paper please.
Michael Heads. Evolution and biogeography of primates: a new model based on molecular phylogenetics, vicariance and plate tectonics. Zoologica Scripta, 2009.
It suggests that lemurs and lorises diverged from the new and old-world monkeys about 180 million years ago, (the early Jurassic). I'd like to post a criticism of it, but I'd rather wait until I've read the paper. After all, he might have included some important data that hasn't made it into the press reports that explains why placentals should be found in the Permian, or that he's produced a ghost lineage based on no fossil evidence whatsoever that's about 100 million years long. Like I say. I don't want to be prejudiced.
