Estimating rates and patterns of morphological evolution from phylogenies: lessons in limb lability from Australian Lerista lizards
Squamates (lizards and snakes) offer an exciting model system for research on the evolution of body form. A new phylogenetic study in BMC Evolutionary Biology of Australian lizards shows remarkable evolutionary lability in digit numbers among closely related species, but also highlights important ch...
