Examples

“Both analyses recovered two clades (englehardoids^([sic]) and juglandoids) within the family [Juglandaceae], and the strict consensus trees resulting from each analysis were similar. The positions of the fossil taxa were also similar between analyses, the biggest difference being that Paleooreomunnea stoneana Dilcher, Potter & Crepet (a fruit taxon; Dilcher et al., 1976) grouped with the juglandoids in the simultaneous but not the molecular scaffold analysis. […] Although the randomly generates pseudofossils were seldom sister to their parent species in the resultant topologies, they did place “in the correct local clade, and neither of the two large clades (engelhardioids or juglandoids) was disrupted” (Manos et al., 2007: 422); “[r]emoval of suites of organ-specific characters did not show appreciably different results” (Manos et al., 2007: 422).”

“According to Wang et al. (1995) [Wang F, Chien N, Zhang Y, Yang H. 1995. Pollen flora of China, 2nd edn. Beijing: Academic Press (in Chinese).], the pollen grains of Platycarya are approx. 20 μm in diameter along the long axis, while those of the other juglandoids range from 30 to 72 μm.”

“Mesophytic vegetation, interpreted as having grown on slopes, was characterized by ancestors of the fagaleans (oaks and relatives) and juglandoids (hickories, walnuts, and relatives). […] We would encounter very dense woodlands comprised of ancestors of modern juglandoids and betuloids growing adjacent to gallery forests flanking rivers during the mid-Cretaceous in the region.”
