Patterns of divergence in ecological relevant traits and their role in reproductive isolation in an adaptively radiated wolf spider genus from Galapagos Ghent University
Whether divergence in ecological traits is merely influenced by ecological processes (ecological opportunity) or rather by the potential of species to produce alterantive phenotypes is crucial for understanding the mechanism of speciation. The degree of divergence in both ecological and molecular traits of species of the genus Hogna will be contrasted to explain patterns of differentiation in the genus Hogna. Furthermore it will be studied to ...
