Phenotypic disparity in Iberian short-horned grasshoppers (Acrididae): the role of ecology and phylogeny

Phenotypic disparity in Iberian short-horned grasshoppers (Acrididae): the role of ecology and phylogeny

Abstract Background The combination of model-based comparative techniques, disparity analyses and ecomorphological correlations constitutes a powerful method to gain insight into the evolutionary mechanisms that shape morphological variation and speciation processes. In this study, we used a time-ca...
