Evolution: Five Heads Are Better Than One.

Current biology : CB - 4 Apr 2016

Phillips Patrick C

Abstract excerpt

Three newly discovered species of fig-living nematodes display remarkable diversity in head morphology depending on their local environment. This shows that a great deal of ecological diversity can be maintained in the absence of substantial genetic variation.
