Patterns of extinction and diversification in the Phanerozoic can be accounted for by stochastic models. This result may suggest that these general patterns of biotic evolution represent a huge number of largely independent processes rather than singular processes. Therefore, paleontologists should focus on individual events and chains of events rather than on the general patterns.
