Bininda-Emonds and Purvis reanalyzed our mammalian phylogenetic supermatrix and claim that our results are not significantly different from their delayed-rise hypothesis. We show that our divergence times are ~11 million years later for placental inter- and intraordinal divergences—consistent with a post–Cretaceous-Paleogene (KPg) radiation of most modern mammalian orders—and find no support for the early Eocene delayed-rise hypothesis.Type
