- •
Shifts in plant−insect interactions indicate a greater partitioning of foliage and more specialized herbivory through time.
- •
Two new damage types (DTs) were found that were not documented previously in the fossil record.
- •
Features of the plant hosts, such as antiherbivore defenses, and their insect herbivores may explain the herbivory patterns.
