  • Fossils, Phylogeny, and Form

    An Analytical Approach

    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Phylogenetic analysis and morphometrics have been developed by biologists into rigorous analytic tools for testing hypotheses about the relationships between groups of species. This book applies these tools to paleontological data.The fossil record is our one true chronicle of the history of life, preserving a set of macroevolutionary patterns; thus various hypotheses about evolutionary processes ...

  • The Achievements and the Days Book I. From the Origin to the Hominids

    de Roland Maes ...
    In Book 1, there is discussion of the development of the universe, the galaxies and the earth. A careful, though cursory, scientific examination of the mechanisms involved in the progression of molecules to metazoan species follows. The author promulgates the interesting concept that evolution of highly organized systems under appropriate conditions is a necessity rather than occurring by chance. ... Leer más

  • Evolution of the Insects

    Series series Cambridge Evolution Series
    Insects are the most diverse group of organisms in the 3 billion-year history of life on Earth, and the most ecologically dominant animals on land. This book chronicles for the first time the complete evolutionary history of insects: their living diversity, relationships and 400 million years of fossils. Whereas other volumes have focused on either living species or fossils, this is the first ... Leer más

  • Animal Evolution

    Genomes, Fossils, and Trees

    Animal life, now and over the past half billion years, is incredibly diverse. Describing and understanding the evolution of this diversity of body plans - from vertebrates such as humans and fish to the numerous invertebrate groups including sponges, insects, molluscs, and the many groups of worms - is a major goal of evolutionary biology. In this book, a group of leading researchers adopt a ... Leer más

  • Paleontology and Geology of Laetoli: Human Evolution in Context

    Volume 2: Fossil Hominins and the Associated Fauna

    Edición de Terry Harrison ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This volume 2 and its companion volume 1 present the results of new investigations into the geology, paleontology and paleoecology of the early hominin site of Laetoli in northern Tanzania. The site is one of the most important paleontological and paleoanthropological sites in Africa, worldrenowned for the discovery of fossils of the early hominin Australopithecus afarensis, as well as remarkable ...

  • Paleogene Fossil Birds

    de Gerald Mayr ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    In the present book the Paleogene fossil record of birds is detailed for the first time on a worldwide scale. I have developed the idea for such a project for several years, and think that it is an appropriate moment to present a summary of our c- rent knowledge of the early evolution of modern birds. Meanwhile not only is there a confusing diversity of fossil taxa, but also significant progress ... Leer más

  • Avian Ancestors

    A Review of the Phylogenetic Relationships of the Theropods Unenlagiidae, Microraptoria, Anchiornis and Scansoriopterygidae

    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Although consensus exists among researchers that birds evolved from coelurosaurian theropods, paleontologists still debate the identification of the group of coelurosaurians that most closely approaches the common ancestor of birds. The last 20 years witnessed the discovery of a wide array of avian-like theropods that has considerably amplified the anatomical disparity among deinonychosaurians, ... Leer más

  • Evolutionary Biology and Ecology of Ostracoda

    Theme 3 of the 13th International Symposium on Ostracoda (ISO97)

    Edición de Koen Martens, David J. Horne ...
    Series Libro 148 - Developments in Hydrobiology
    Ostracoda (Crustacea) are potentially excellent model organisms for evolutionary studies, because they combine an extensive fossil record with a wide recent distribution and therefore allow studies on both patterns and processes leading to extant diversity. The main scientific domains contributing theories, concepts, and data to evolutionary biology are morphology (including ontogeny), ... Leer más

  • Paleobiogeography

    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Biogeography relates the evolution of the Earth's biota to major episodes in the Earth's history such as climatic changes and plate tectonic events. Furthermore, biogeographic patterns have played a prominent role in the development of the theory of evolution. Thus biogeography has the potential to make important contributions to the field of geobiology.Paleobiogeography emphasizes how analytical ... Leer más

  • Early Evolutionary History of the Synapsida

    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Non-mammalian synapsids were the dominant terrestrial vertebrates from the Late Carboniferous to the Middle Triassic and play a key role in understanding the origin and evolution of mammals. Despite these facts and the outstanding fossil record of the group, early synapsids remain obscure. This book showcases the full breadth of contemporary research on non-mammalian synapsids, ranging from ... Leer más
