Fig. 5

Hypothesized model for the dietary evolution of lemuriforms drawing from reconstructed lower second molar morphology and dietary ecology inferred from ancestral state reconstructions of dental topography metrics. Dietary states at internal nodes represent hypotheses for the ecologies at ancestors of extant lemur groups. Lepilemur and Megaladapis, which diverge near the origins of lemuriformes and evolve toward folivory, are not figured
