The quantification of morphology through time is a vital tool in
elucidating macroevolutionary patterns. Studies of disparity
require intense effort but can provide insights beyond those gained
using other methodologies. Over the last several decades, studies
of disparity have proliferated, often using echinoderms as a model
organism. Echinoderms have been used to study the methodology of
disparity analyses and potential biases as well as documenting the
morphological patterns observed in clades through time. Combining
morphological studies with phylogenetic analyses or other disparate
data sets allows for the testing of detailed and far-reaching
evolutionary hypotheses.
