Summary Introduction

To suggest: Some hypothesis for the apparent conflict between insect diversification and co-evolution of vascular plants.

Introduction: Competitive displacement is the process in which increasing diversity of species one clade causes a decline in the corresponding clade of species. Incumbent replacement is characterized by the extinction of one clade of species which enables the corresponding clade of species in the process of diversification later in their life. The evidence given by Labandeira and Sepkoski with respect to insect diversification and evolution of vascular plants did not favor the hypothesis given by Ehrlich and Raven.
