“Cute As Buttons” |
Our goal is to understand the relationships of sphaeromatid genera, identify generic and subfamilial groupings and develop phylogenetic hypotheses that can provide a sound basis for future biogeographic, mating-system evolution, ecological, behavioral, and other studies. Our investigation will be guided by morphological and molecular analyses of evolutionary relationships within this family (Crustacea: Isopoda: Sphaeromatidae). |
