Expanding the understanding of local community assembly in adaptive radiations (2013)
Journal Article
Wollenberg, K. C., Veith, M., & Lötters, S. (2014). Expanding the understanding of local community assembly in adaptive radiations. Ecology and Evolution, 4(2), 174-185. https://doi.org/10.1002/ece3.908

Communities are thought to be assembled by two types of filters: by the environment relating to the fundamental niche and by biotic interactions relating to the realized niche. Both filters include parameters related to functional traits and their va... Read More about Expanding the understanding of local community assembly in adaptive radiations.

Determinism in the diversification of hispaniolan trunk-ground anoles (anolis cybotes species complex) (2013)
Journal Article
Wollenberg, K. C., Wang, I. J., Glor, R. E., & Losos, J. B. (2013). Determinism in the diversification of hispaniolan trunk-ground anoles (anolis cybotes species complex). Evolution, 67(11), 3175-3190. https://doi.org/10.1111/evo.12184

The evolutionary processes that produce adaptive radiations are enigmatic. They can only be studied after the fact, once a radiation has occurred and been recognized, rather than while the processes are ongoing. One way to connect pattern to process...

Correlates of eye colour and pattern in mantellid frogs (2013)
Journal Article
Amat, F., Wollenberg, K. C., & Vences, M. (2013). Correlates of eye colour and pattern in mantellid frogs. Salamandra - German Journal of Herpetology, 49(1), 7-17

With more than 250 species, the Mantellidae is the most species-rich family of frogs in Madagascar. These frogs are highly diversified in morphology, ecology and natural history. Based on a molecular phylogeny of 248 mantellids, we here examine the d... Read More about Correlates of eye colour and pattern in mantellid frogs.
