    • Convergent Evolution of Sexual Dimorphism in Skull Shape Using Distinct Developmental Strategies 

      Sanger, Thomas; Sherratt, Emma; McGlothlin, Joel W.; Brodie, Edmund D.; Losos, Jonathan; Abzhanov, Arkhat (Wiley-Blackwell, 2013)
      Studies integrating evolutionary and developmental analyses of morphological variation are of growing interest to biologists as they promise to shed fresh light on the mechanisms of morphological diversification. Sexually ...

    • Developing A Community-based Genetic Nomenclature for Anole Lizards 

      Kusumi, Kenro; Kulathinal, Rob J.; Abzhanov, Arkhat; Boissinot, Stephane; Crawford, Nicholas; Faircloth, Brant C.; Glenn, Travis C.; Janes, Daniel E.; Losos, Jonathan; Menke, Douglas B.; Poe, Steven; Sanger, Thomas; Schneider, Christopher; Stapley, Jessica; Wade, Juli; Wilson-Rawls, Jeanne (BioMed Central, 2011)
      Background: Comparative studies of amniotes have been hindered by a dearth of reptilian molecular sequences. With the genomic assembly of the green anole, Anolis carolinensis available, non-avian reptilian genes can now ...

    • An Ecomorphological Analysis of Native and Introduced Populations of the Endemic Lizard Anolis maynardi of the Cayman Islands 

      Herrel, Anthony; Cottam, Matt DaCosta; Godbeer, Kristan; Sanger, Thomas; Losos, Jonathan (BioOne, 2011)
      Anolis maynardi is an endemic anole from Little Cayman (Cayman Islands) that is characterized by an extremely elongated rostrum in males. In the 1980s, this species was discovered on the nearby island of Cayman Brac where ...
