The Utility of Geometric Morphometrics to Elucidate Pathways of Cichlid Fish Evolution

Fishes of the family Cichlidae are famous for their spectacular species flocks and therefore constitute a model system for the study of the pathways of adaptive radiation. Their radiation is connected to trophic specialization, manifested in dentition, head morphology, and body shape. Geometric morp...
