Fluctuations in Evolutionary Integration Allow for Big Brains and Disparate Faces

In theory, evolutionary modularity allows anatomical structures to respond differently to selective regimes, thus promoting morphological diversification. These differences can then influence the rate and direction of phenotypic evolution among structures. Here we use geometric morphometrics and phe...
