Changes in ontogenetic patterns facilitate diversification in skull shape of Australian agamid lizards
Abstract Background Morphological diversity among closely related animals can be the result of differing growth patterns. The Australian radiation of agamid lizards (Amphibolurinae) exhibits great ecological and morphological diversity, which they have achieved on a continent-wide scale, in a relati...
