Figure 7

A. Forage selection of extant ochotonids, 63 families were reported as food (consumed directly or collected for hay piles) of extant ochotonids, these plant information mainly follows Ge et al. [45], which was summarized from 29 sources. B. Forage selection of leporids. 91 families were reported as food of leporids. These information was summarized from 28 sources. The top ten families selected by extant ochotonids and leporids are compared with the number of species and their proportions. C. Comparing C3, C4 and other components in the diet of different herbivores. 1. Ochotona curzoniae [Reference S29 in File S1], 2. Ochotona dauurica [Reference S29 in File S1], 3. Ochotona curzoniae [Reference S30 in File S1]; 4. Ochotona princeps [Reference S31 in File S1]; 5. Lepus timidus [Reference S32 in File S1]; 6. Lepus europaeus [Reference S33 in File S1]; 7.
