Morphology, Shape, and Phylogeny
Norman MacLeod and Peter L. Forey (Editors)
The analysis of morphological form represents a fundamental source of data
for tracing evolutionary relationships in most groups of organisms. This
book represents the first comprehensive synthesis of the most rigorous type
of morphological analysis-morphometrics-and the most sophisticated approach
to phylogenetic inference-phylogenetic systematics. This is a synoptic
volume that approaches the question of how morphological data are used in
evolutionary biology from theoretical, historical, and practical view
points. Containing previously unpublished analytical methods it puts
forward the case for a radical synthesis of morphological, morphometric,
and phylogenetic methodologies that will change the way systematists use
morphological data as well as the way in which phylogeny can give a
historical dimension to morphometric analyses.
