Golden orbweavers ignore biological rules: phylogenomic and comparative analyses unravel a complex evolution of sexual size dimorphism
Instances of sexual size dimorphism (SSD) provide the context for rigorous tests of biological
rules of size evolution, such as Cope's rule (phyletic size increase), Rensch's rule (allometric …

[HTML][HTML] Phylogeography of a good Caribbean disperser: Argiope argentata (Araneae, Araneidae) and a new 'cryptic'species from Cuba
The Caribbean islands harbor rich biodiversity with high levels of single island endemism.
Stretches of ocean between islands represent significant barriers to gene-flow. Yet some …
