Get a grip—evolution of claw shape in relation to microhabitat use in intertidal arthropods (Acari, Oribatida)

Claws may be the most common biological attachment devices in animals but relatively few studies have examined the ecological and evolutionary significance of their morphology. We performed the first geometric morphometric investigation of arthropod claws using 15 intertidal oribatid mite species fr...
