Ecological Opportunity from Innovation, not Islands, Drove the Anole Lizard Adaptive Radiation

Edward D. Burress et al.

Summary: Islands are often believed to play a significant role in facilitating adaptive radiation, but this study found that islands do not provide a special context for exceptionally rapid diversification. Instead, a key innovation, adhesive toe pads, facilitated the exploitation of arboreal niches by anole lizards. This suggests that selective pressures for niche diversification differ between islands and the mainland, but the pace of diversification driven by these processes is indistinguishable.

Rapid Radiation and Rampant Reticulation: Phylogenomics of South American Liolaemus Lizards

Damien Esquerre et al.

Summary: Understanding the reasons behind the heterogeneity among gene trees can improve the accuracy of species trees. This study examines the phylogenomics of a group of South American lizards and finds high levels of discordance between different types of DNA sequences, which can be attributed to extensive incomplete lineage sorting and introgression. These findings shed light on the historical processes that have influenced the evolution of these lizards in the context of Andean orogeny and glacial cycles.

The Evolution of Trait Disparity during the Radiation of the Plant Genus Macrocarpaea (Gentianaceae) in the Tropical Andes

Julien C. Vieu et al.

Summary: This study investigated the evolutionary history of the plant genus Macrocarpaea in the middle elevation montane forests of the Tropical Andes, revealing that niche conservatism and geographical processes have been the main drivers of its diversification history, with a rare adaptive divergence event enabling colonization of a new adaptive zone and progressive radiation within that zone.

Heterogeneous relationships between rates of speciation and body size evolution across vertebrate clades

Christopher R. Cooney et al.

Summary: The rates of speciation and morphological evolution are generally positively related at broad macroevolutionary scales, but exhibit substantial heterogeneity in strength and direction at finer scales across vertebrate clades. Different vertebrate clades show varying degrees of lineage-specific relationships between rates of speciation and body size evolution.

Evolutionary and biogeographical support for species-specific proteins in lizard chemical signals

Marco Mangiacotti et al.

Summary: Species-specific protein components in animal signals aid in species recognition and reducing the risks of mating mismatches and interbreeding. Research on lizard chemical signals reveals that protein composition is species-specific, with greater divergence in protein patterns seen in sympatric, closely related species. Proteins in lizard signals show low phylogenetic signal, recent and steep increase in relative disparity, and a higher rate of evolutionary change compared with non-specific signal traits.

Evaluating the island effect on phenotypic evolution in the Italian wall lizard, Podarcis siculus (Reptilia: Lacertidae)

Vasco Avramo et al.

Summary: Islands serve as natural laboratories for studying evolutionary processes, yet the general rules underlying morphological evolution on islands remain unresolved. This study of the Italian wall lizard on a large geographical scale found increased shape disparity in insular lizards, while size disparity and mean head dimensions of males decreased on islands, leading to a reduction in sexual dimorphism. Multidirectional morphological diversification was observed in head shape of both sexes on islands.

Ecological specialization, rather than the island effect, explains morphological diversification in an ancient radiation of geckos

Hector Tejero-Cicuendez et al.

Summary: Through studying morphological data of geckos from the genus Pristurus, it was found that island colonization does not necessarily lead to higher levels or rates of morphological diversification, instead, habitat specialization better explains body size and shape evolution, with ground habitats being the main driver of morphological change.

Summary: Stick and leaf insects are large terrestrial herbivorous arthropods known for disguising themselves as plant parts. Their evolutionary history is shaped by convergent evolution and adaptive radiations, leading to morphological and ecological diversity among different lineages.

Environmental correlates of morphological diversity in Australian geckos

Jesca Norris et al.

Summary: The study found significant morphological variation among Australian gecko families and genera, with a strong phylogenetic signal in morphology. Furthermore, body dimensions were correlated with microhabitat use, with saxicolous species and generalists having larger body dimensions compared to terrestrial species.

Genetically diverse yet morphologically conserved: Hidden diversity revealed among Bornean geckos (Gekkonidae: Cyrtodactylus)

Hayden R. Davis et al.

Summary: The use of molecular systematic techniques has greatly increased the recognition of cryptic biological diversity, such as seen in the rapid increase in diversity within the gekkonid genus Cyrtodactylus Gray, 1827. The study on Borneo showed evidence of new species within the C. pubisulcus complex, despite minimal phenotypic distinction. This highlights the importance of conservation efforts for these newly identified species and the overall undescribed diversity across Borneo.

Genomic assessment of the Phyllodactylus tuberculosus complex (Reptilia: Phyllodactylidae) in America

Tonatiuh Ramirez-Reyes et al.

Summary: Leaf-toed geckos exhibit significant cryptic diversity in North America, with Central American taxa showing unknown origins and relationships with their North American congeners. By analyzing genetic isolation and divergence times using a relaxed molecular clock model, researchers were able to hypothesize that the MRCA between Central American and North American lineages dates back to the beginning of the Paleocene. This suggests an ancestral distribution in the proto-Mexican region and the Chortis Block.

The Making of Calibration Sausage Exemplified by Recalibrating the Transcriptomic Timetree of Jawed Vertebrates

Summary: Molecular divergence dating can help overcome the incompleteness of the fossil record, but it needs to be calibrated by fossil data. The current calibration dates cannot be relied on from published compendia or other secondary sources as they quickly become outdated.

The island rule explains consistent patterns of body size evolution in terrestrial vertebrates

Ana Benitez-Lopez et al.

Summary: A phylogenetic meta-analysis reveals that the 'island rule' effects are widespread in mammals, birds, and reptiles, but less evident in amphibians. The magnitude of insular dwarfism and gigantism is influenced by climate, island size, and isolation, with more pronounced effects in smaller, more remote islands for mammals and reptiles. The implications of the island rule for body size evolution are nuanced and context-dependent, depending on various ecological pressures and environmental conditions.

Convergent patterns of adaptive radiation between island and mainland Anolis lizards

Jonathan M. Huie et al.

Summary: The study aims to uncover convergent and divergent patterns of diversification in Anolis lizards on the Greater Antillean islands and in Central and South America. It found that mainland Anolis exhibit similar ecologies and morphologies to those on the islands, suggesting exceptional morphological convergence between the island and mainland faunas. However, regional differences and historical contingencies can lead to replicate yet variable radiations, indicating that replicated radiations occur more frequently beyond island settings than previously recognized.

Drivers and patterns of bite force evolution in liolaemid lizards

Felix B. Cruz et al.

Summary: Phenotypic variation is the result of selection on relevant traits in a given ecological context, but may be limited by phylogenetic history, genetic drift, and other constraints. Performance traits in organismal play a key role in driving variation in morphology, with multiple anatomical trait combinations leading to similar levels of performance. Traits with greater mechanical sensitivity show higher rates of evolution compared to other traits involved in trade-offs.
