Untangling intra- and interspecific effects on body size clines reveals divergent processes structuring convergent patterns in Anolis lizards (2014)
Journal Article
Muñoz, M. M., Wegener, J. E., & Algar, A. C. (2014). Untangling intra- and interspecific effects on body size clines reveals divergent processes structuring convergent patterns in Anolis lizards. American Naturalist, 184(5), https://doi.org/10.1086/678084

Bergmann’s rule—the tendency for body size to increase in colder environments—remains controversial today, despite 150 years of research. Considerable debate has revolved around whether the rule applies within or among species. However, this debate h...

Evolutionary stasis and lability in thermal physiology in a group of tropical lizards (2014)
Journal Article
Muñoz, M. M., Stimola, M. A., Algar, A. C., Cosover, A., Rodriguez, A. J., Landestoy, M. A., …Losos, J. B. (2014). Evolutionary stasis and lability in thermal physiology in a group of tropical lizards. Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 281(1778), 1-9. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2013.2433

Understanding how quickly physiological traits evolve is a topic of great interest, particularly in the context of how organisms can adapt in response to climate warming. Adjustment to novel thermal habitats may occur either through behavioural adjus... Read More about Evolutionary stasis and lability in thermal physiology in a group of tropical lizards.
