Daniel Andrés Morón-Alfonso is a palaeontologist specializing in invertebrates and marine fauna, principally cephalopods and other mollusks. In 2018 he obtained a M.Sc. degree in Paleontology from the Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales, Universidad de Buenos Aires (Argentina). His main interests include the macroevolutionary patterns of fossil fauna, palaeobiology, palaeoecology, virtual palaeontology, morphometric and geomorphometric techniques, and dynamical systems applied to biological problems. Currently, he is a Ph.D. student of Geologic Sciences at the Universidad de Buenos Aires. His research is heeded on the development and application of virtual techniques to study the palaeobiology of marine fossils.

Ninon Allaire received a bachelor’s degree in Environmental and Earth Sciences from the University of Saint-Etienne (France), a master’s degree in Palaeontology, Sedimentology and Palaeoenvironments from the Ecole Normale Supérieure de Lyon and the University Claude Bernard Lyon 1 (France), and a doctorate (PhD) in Palaeontology from the University of Lille (France). She was a postdoctoral fellow at the IGFL (France) and at the GeoZentrum Nordbayern (Germany). Since 2022, she is working at the CICTERRA (Argentina) as a postdoctoral researcher. Her research mainly focuses on the evolution of the early ammonoids (Devonian). She studies the fluctuations of their taxonomic richness and morphological disparity through time.

Currently assistant professor at the University of Bonn (Germany). I graduated in Paleontology and obtained my doctoral degree in Evolutionary Biology from the University of Montpellier (France). I am interested in phenotypic variation in general. I have worked with diverse extinct and extant groups including insects, ammonites, conodonts and rodents. I try to link morphological variation with functional consequences at different scales of biodiversity.
