  abstract = {{H}igh-level phylogenies are very common in evolutionary analyses, although they are often treated as incomplete data. {H}ere, we provide statistical tools to analyze what we name clade data, which are the ages of clades together with their numbers of species. {W}e develop a general approach for the statistical modeling of variation in speciation and extinction rates, including temporal variation, unknown variation, and linear and nonlinear modeling. {W}e show how this approach can be generalized to a wide range of situations, including testing the effects of life-history traits and environmental variables on diversification rates. {W}e report the results of an extensive simulation study to assess the performance of some statistical tests presented here as well as of the estimators of speciation and extinction rates. {T}hese latter results suggest the possibility to estimate correctly extinction rate in the absence of fossils. {A}n example with data on fish is presented.},
