Cenozoic chronological correlation chart of teleost diversity as based on articulated skeletons and otoliths, and number of species described with otoliths in situ. Scale bars in skeleton-based record: Black minimum count as based on Bannikov (2010) (Cenozoic of the CIS); Fierstine et al. (2012) (Cenozoic of California); Friedman et al. (2015) (London Clay); and Carnevale et al. (2014) (Monte Bolca) and various authors for the Miocene of Italy and Algeria. Grey best estimate count. Scale bars in otolith record: Black minimum count as based on Nolf, (2013). Grey best estimate count, including post 2013 data and estimation by one of us (WS). Scale bars in otoliths in situ record: Blue published, Red this volume, and Yellow currently under study
