Figure 10. Phylogenetic distribution of traits in the sauropod gigantism ECM.

Figure 10

For each trait in the model, the likely inclusive taxon in which the trait evolved is indicated. Note that Gravisauria is the taxon in which most of the classical sauropod traits appear. Darker green traits are observed, lighter green traits are inferred. Black arrows indicate evolutionary causation and blue arrows indicate feedback loops.
