Dataset for: The radiation continuum and the evolution of frog diversity

Most of life’s vast diversity of species and phenotypes is often attributed to adaptive radiation. Yet its contribution to species and phenotypic diversity of a major group has not been examined. Two key questions remain unresolved. First, what proportion of clades show macroevolutionary dynamics similar to adaptive radiations? Second, what proportion of overall species richness and phenotypic diversity do these adaptive-radiation-like clades contain? We address these questions with phylogenetic and morphological data for 1,226 frog species across 43 families (which represent >99% of all species). Less than half of frog families resembled adaptive radiations (with rapid diversification and morphological evolution). Yet, these adaptive-radiation-like clades encompassed ~75% of both morphological and species diversity, despite rapid rates in other clades (e.g., non-adaptive radiations). Overall, we support the importance of adaptive-radiation-like evolution for explaining diversity pat..., , , # This Dryad data package contains the data, computer code and document files for the article:

## Data files included are:

\"Supplementary Data 1 Morphometrics Anura 4628 specimens\": The full intraspecific phenotypic dataset. The vast majority of these data are raw measurements. The infrequent values with more than three digits were estimated based on intraspecific scaling relationships, due to unavailability of photos. We provide both MS Excel and '.CSV' files, the former with a tab of metadata.

\"Supplementary Data 2 Anura species means sd se n\": Interspecific species means, standard deviations, standard errors calculated per species, and standard errors calculated with a pooled estimate of measurement variance from Ives *et al.* (2007). All values were rounded to three digits; wherever fewer digits occur, these values rounded to end...
