Convergence and divergence in lizard colour polymorphisms.

Biological reviews of the Cambridge Philosophical Society - 1 Feb 2021

Stuart-Fox Devi, Aulsebrook Anne, Rankin Katrina J, Dong Caroline M, McLean Claire A

Abstract excerpt

Colour polymorphic species are model systems for examining the evolutionary processes that generate and maintain discrete phenotypic variation in natural populations. Lizards have repeatedly evolved strikingly similar polymorphic sexual signals in distantly related lineages, providing an opportunity to examine convergence and divergence in colour polymorphism, correlated traits and associated evolutionary...
