Morphological and behavioral evidence for adaptive diversification of sympatric Hawaiian limpets (Cellana spp.).

Integrative and comparative biology - 1 Sept 2011

Bird Christopher E

Abstract excerpt

The endemic Hawaiian limpets (Cellana exarata, Cellana sandwicensis, and Cellana talcosa), reside at different elevations on wave-exposed rocky shores and comprise a monophyletic lineage that diversified within Hawai'i. Here, I report phenotypic differences in shell, soft tissue, and behavioral characters among these limpets and discuss their potential utility in exploiting their respective niches. The high-shore...
