Faster evolving groups are known to be pulled towards the outgroup, a phenomenon known as long branch attraction, which could have generated the observed phylogeny (=-=Felsenstein 1988-=-). It is conceivable that the changes that were necessary for the L. (Sauroleishmania) to adapt from mammalian hosts to reptile hosts may have forced a temporarily accelerated rate of evolution. It ma... |

The two genera of modern sloths Bradypus and Choloepus belong to two different families which diverged at the end of the Cretaceous over 70 MYA (=-=Höss et al. 1996-=-). The modern genera are the remnants of a much more diverse group of terrestrial, arboreal and even aquatic sloths that flourished during most of the Cenozoic (Patterson & Pascual 1972, Engelmann 198... |
