   http://coloherp.org/cb-news/archive/Paleo/LizardEvolution.php
   
   Extractions: A discovery that remarkably similar lizard communities have evolved independently on different islands in the Caribbean is shedding new light on the science of evolution and genetics. A team of scientists, led by Jonathan B. Losos, Ph.D., associate professor of biology in Arts and Sciences at Washington University, examined DNA of 56 species found throughout large Caribbean Islands of Puerto Rico, Cuba, Jamaica and the Greater Antilles to test theories on evolutionary history of the Anoles. The study reveals a perfect example of an evolutionary concept known as "convergence", where species evolve in similar adaptations to the environment despite living geographically apart. Although evolutionary convergence has been taken as evidence for the working of natural selection, the study is unique in showing that entire communities have converged. This goes against the grain of most evolutionary thought which stresses that random events a meteorite striking Earth or a hurricane wiping out island species play unpredictable roles that send evolutionary diversification down different pathways.

10. Phylogeny Entrance

    Extractions: Phylogeny Wing These exhibits explore the ancestor/descendant relationships which connect all organisms, past and present. Here are four ways to get started: phylogeny of life on Earth. Wondering what in the world "phylogeny" means, and how it relates to paleontology? Read an introduction to phylogeny Read tips on navigating the Phylogeny Wing Use our Web Lift to Taxa to look for a particular group of organisms. Visit the UCMP Special Exhibit Journey into Phylogenetic Systematics to find out how biologists reconstruct the pattern of events that led to the diversity of life, and learn why this is so important.

    Extractions: abyssal plain : Large area of extremely flat ocean floor lying near a continent and generally over 4 km in depth. Acanthodians : Now extinct, earliest group of fish with jaws, ranging from the Silurian to the Permian. Acritarchs : Organic-walled microfossils common throughout the Proterozoic and early Paleozoic adaptation : Any heritable characteristic of an organism that improves its ability to survive and reproduce in its environment. Also used to describe the process of genetic change within a population, as influenced by natural selection. Alternatively, some heritable feature of an individual's phenotype that improves its chances of survival and reproduction in the existing environment. adaptive radiation (also "radiation", for short): The diversification, over evolutionary time, of a species or group of species into several different species or subspecies that are typically adapted to different ecological niches (for example, Darwin's finches). The term can also be applied to larger groups of organisms, as in "the adaptive radiation of mammals." For example, trilobites underwent a massive radiation during the Cambrian, and insects during the Cretaceous.
