Appendicular skeletal morphology of North American Martes reflect independent modes of evolution in conjunction with Pleistocene glacial cycles.

Anatomical record (Hoboken, N.J. : 2007) - 1 Jul 2021

Lynch Leigha M, Felice Ryan, O'Brien Haley D

Abstract excerpt

Pleistocene glacial cycles are thought to have driven ecological niche shifts, including novel niche formation. North American pine martens, Martes americana and M. caurina, are exemplar taxa thought to have diverged molecularly and morphologically during Pleistocene glaciation. Previous research found correlations between Martes limb morphology with biome and climate, suggesting that appendicular evolution may...
