What regulates biological diversity and its historical development? Can it be explained by natural selection alone? Has geologic history regulated the tempo of diversification? This expanded and updated second edition offers a comprehensive look at macroevolution and its underpinnings, with a primary emphasis on animal evolution. From a Neodarwinian point of view, it integrates evolutionary processes at all levels to explain the diversity of animal life. It examines a wide range of topics including genetics and speciation, development and evolution, the constructional and functional aspects of form, fossil lineages, and systematics, and it takes a hard look at the Cambrian explosion. Researchers and graduate students will find this book a most comprehensive examination of macroevolution. 517 3 $aGenetics, Paleontology, & Macroevolution 606 $aMacroevolution 606 $aGenetics 606 $aPaleontology 615 0$aMacroevolution. 615 0$aGenetics. 615 0$aPaleontology. 676 $a576.8 700 $aLevinton$b Jeffrey S.$0450991 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780279603321 996 $aGenetics, paleontology, and macroevolution$93816183 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01156nas 2200361 c 450 001 9910978168803321 005 20260218110703.0 035 $a(DE-599)ZDB3207050-0 035 $a(OCoLC)1499138788 035 $a(DE-101)1355617790 035 $a(CKB)5860000000552742 035 $a(DE-599)3207050-0 035 $a(EXLCZ)995860000000552742 100 $a20250207a19969999 |y | 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aChemicals in the environment$ereport on environmental survey and wildlife monitoring of chemicals in F.Y. ?$fEnvironmental Health and Safety Division, Environmental Health Department, Ministry of the Environment 210 31$aTokyo$cMinistry of the Environment Government of Japan$d[1996?]- 215 $aOnline-Ressource 300 $aGesehen am 07.02.2025 608 $aZeitschrift$2gnd-content 676 $a333.7 676 $a540 801 0$b0089 801 1$bDE-101 801 2$b9999 906 $aJOURNAL 912 $a9910978168803321 996 $aChemicals in the environment$91091206 997 $aUNINA
