Die Wissenschaftler des Leibniz-Institus zur Analyse des Biodiversitätswandels (LIB) stellen ihre Forschung vor.
One of the most remarkable characteristics in the evolution of anurans is the presence of a free-living swimming larva, the tadpole. This biphasic life cycle allows anurans to explore resources from both aquatic and terrestrial environments and many studies indicate that evolutionary pressures can act decoupled in both adults and larvae resulting in complex histories of character evolution. Such independent evolution and the large phenotypic variation among larvae have been pointed out as key elements in the evolution and diversification of anurans. In this talk I will explore the amazing phenotypic variation in anuran larvae, the correlation between ecology and morphology, and discuss the evolutionary implications of my findings.
