Modularity of the Oral Jaws Is Linked to Repeated Changes in the Craniofacial Shape of African Cichlids
The African cichlids of the East-African rift-lakes provide one of the most dramatic examples of adaptive radiation known. It has long been thought that functional decoupling of the oral and pharyngeal jaws in cichlids has facilitated their explosive evolution. Recent research has also shown that cr...
