Escalation and Extinction Selectivity: Morphology Versus Isotopic Reconstruction of Bivalve Metabolism

Abstract: Abstract. Studies that have tested and failed to support the hypothesis that escalated species (e.g., those with predationresistant adaptations) are more susceptible to elimination during mass extinctions have concentrated on the distribution and degree of morphological defenses in molluscan species. This morphological approach to determining level of escalation in bivalves may be oversimplified because it does not account for metabolic rate, which is an important measure of escalation that is less readily acc… Show more
