Selective pressures favor morphologies that are adapted to distinct ecologies,resulting in trait partition!ng among ecomorphotypes.However,the effects of these selective pressures vary across taxa,especially because m...
The interaction between organisms and their environment is central in functional morphology.Differences in habitat usage may imply divergent morphology of locomotor systems;thus,detecting which morphological traits ar...
The freshwater cichlid, Sarotherodon galilaeus (Linné, 1758) is an economically and commercially important fisheries species that has naturally colonized and dominated a sand-dragged man-made freshwater lake of Ahozo...
