Significant advances have been made in species delimitation and numerous methods can test precisely defined models of speciation, though the synthesis of phylogeography and taxonomy is still sometimes incomplete. Emerging consensus treats d...

What happens when organisms actively modify their environment? Clarifying the role of construction behavior on a macroevolutionary scale is crucial to interpreting phenotypic evolution. Spiders, an extremely successful group of animals exhi...

Some phylogenetic problems remain unresolved even when large amounts of sequence data are analyzed and methods that accommodate processes such as incomplete lineage sorting are employed. In addition to investigating biological sources of ph...
How the Easter Egg Weevils Got Their Spots: Phylogenomics Reveals Müllerian Mimicry in Pachyrhynchus (Coleoptera, Curculionidae) [0.03%]

The evolutionary origins of mimicry in the Easter egg weevil, Pachyrhynchus, have fascinated researchers since first noted more than a century ago by Alfred Russel Wallace. Müllerian mimicry, or mimicry in which 2 or more distasteful speci...
Mosaic Evolution of the Skull in Labrid Fishes Involves Differences in Both Tempo and Mode of Morphological Change [0.03%]

Modularity is a ubiquitous feature of organismal design that plays an important role in structuring patterns of morphological diversification. Modularity can facilitate evolutionary changes by allowing subsets of traits to coevolve as integ...
The Importance of Contact Zones for Distinguishing Interspecific from Intraspecific Geographic Variation [0.03%]
接触带地区在区分种间和种内地理变异方面的的重要性

With limited sampling, geographic variation within a single species can be difficult to distinguish from interspecific variation, confounding our ability to draw accurate species boundaries. We argue that thorough sampling and analysis of c...
Sexual Signals Persist over Deep Time: Ancient Co-option of Bioluminescence for Courtship Displays in Cypridinid Ostracods [0.03%]
性信号的久远存在：甲壳动物利用生物发光进行求偶展示的现象

Although the diversity, beauty, and intricacy of sexually selected courtship displays command the attention of evolutionists, the longevity of these traits in deep time is poorly understood. Population-based theory suggests sexual selection...
Predicting Long Pendant Edges in Model Phylogenies, with Applications to Biodiversity and Tree Inference [0.03%]
模型系统发生树中长 pendant 边的预测及其在生物多样性和树推断中的应用

Sergey Bocharov et al.
In the simplest phylogenetic diversification model (the pure-birth Yule process), lineages split independently at a constant rate $/lambda$ for time $t$. The length of a randomly chosen edge (either interior or pendant) in the resulting tre...

Trade-offs are thought to bias evolution and are core features of many anatomical systems. Therefore, trade-offs may have far-reaching macroevolutionary consequences, including patterns of morphological, functional, and ecological diversity...
Phylogenomic Analysis of the Parrots of the World Distinguishes Artifactual from Biological Sources of Gene Tree Discordance [0.03%]
基于全基因组数据的鹦鹉科系统发生关系分析：人工错误与生物分歧的对比研究

Brian Tilston Smith et al.
Gene tree discordance is expected in phylogenomic trees and biological processes are often invoked to explain it. However, heterogeneous levels of phylogenetic signal among individuals within data sets may cause artifactual sources of topol...
