In hoehna/TESS: Diversification Rate Estimation and Fast Simulation of Reconstructed Phylogenetic Trees under Tree-Wide Time-Heterogeneous Birth-Death Processes Including Mass-Extinction Events

Description

This phylogeny describes the species relationship and divergence times of the class Mammalia with 1-3 species included per family, published in Meredith et al. (2011).

Usage
