Explore the intricate relationship between behavior and evolution in this thought-provoking lecture. Delve into the concept of behavior as both a driving force and a limiting factor in phenotypic evolution, with a focus on the 'Cybotoid' Anoles from Hispaniola. Examine how thermoregulation impacts cold tolerance, body temperature, and evolutionary processes across different elevations and environments. Investigate the "Bogert Effect" and its implications for physiological adaptation. Compare thermoregulatory behaviors between island and mainland anoles, and discover how these differences influence heat tolerance evolution and optimal trait values. Analyze the impact of thermoregulation on morphological evolution and explore its potential role in mitigating extinction risks for high-elevation species. Gain insights into the timing and patterns of diversification in Anoles, and learn about innovative approaches to reconstructing adaptive radiation using microbial systems.
