A Phylogenetic Analysis of Sleep Architecture in Mammals: The Integration of Anatomy, Physiology, and Ecology

Among mammalian species, the time spent in the two main “architectural” states of sleep—slow‐wave sleep (SWS) and rapid‐eye‐movement (REM) sleep—varies greatly. Previous comparative studies of sleep architecture found that larger mammals, those with bigger brains, and those with higher absolute basa...
