Evolutionary BiologyFutuyma (ecology and evolution, SUNY Stony Brook) covers such subject areas as phylogeny, paleobiology, genetic mechanisms of change and speciation, character evolution, the theory of processes and macroevolution, and new molecular perspectives. Numerous line drawings, charts, diagrams, and maps are provided. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR |

Suppose that both species A and B have many primitive features , that C has
many derived features ( because of its more rapid evolution ) , but that B and C
spring from an immediate common ancestor . Species B is genealogically closer
to C ...

If a evolves to a smaller value , structure 1 will be retarded with respect to
structure 2 in the descendant , compared with the ancestor ; at comparable times
in ontogeny structure 1 will be smaller , more like the juvenile condition ( Figure 7
