Uncoupling of morphological disparity and species diversity in <i>Zosterophyllum</i> , with its new species from the Pridoli (Silurian) of West Junggar, Xinjiang, China
Asynchronous and decoupled patterns of change in diversity and morphological disparity among Zosterophyllum species are supported. Increased disparity in reproductive morphology is considered to be closely associated with changes in Zosterophyllum species diversity.
