Ecomorphology, Performance Capability, and Scaling of West Indian Anolis Lizards: An Evolutionary Analysis

Studies of ecomorphology–the relationship among species between morphology and ecology–contain two implicit and rarely tested hypotheses: (1) that morphological differences among species result in differences in performance capability at ecologically relevant tasks, which, in turn, produce differences in behavior and ecology; and (2) that morphology, performance capability, ecology and behavior have evolved synchronously. I tested these...
