Scientists have been thinking about how new #species evolve since Darwin wrote On The Origin of Species in 1859. The results presented here call into question some of the most common explanations of how species originate.

@TJNear I guess that depends how much genetic differentiation you need in your species concept. They look like species (stable phenotypes) and mate assortatively. Two important boxes ticked.
Speciation can proceed without much genetic change or difference. This is not that unexpected if epigenetics plays a role in initiating species divergence.

Can speciation leave essentially no phylogenetic signal? A fascinating study of the Caribbean hamlet (Hypoplectrus: Serranidae) radiation by Helmkampf et al. in Science. https://t.co/bwQaYjuM5P

A big part of my PhD research is out!
Do closely related species of the humble fruit fly show differences in their temperature related behaviour?

It's today!! Come see my talk at #Evol2024 at 2:45 in Comparative Biology III. I used a comparative transcriptomic approach to investigate the evolution of miniaturized body size in one of the best groups-- gobies!
Very happy to have presented our work on hamlets at the #evolution2024
Looking into the radiation from a phylogenetic perspective and finding that the hamlet radiation is largely unresolved despite their phenotypic diversification & reproductive isolation. 🐠

🔍 Differentiating fly species by eye, especially their larvae, is a tough task.
🧠 But on a temperature gradient, we discovered distinct behaviours.
🏔️ These temperature preference shifts align with their ecologies!

New paper out today! Sharks populations in marine parks in Brazil are recovering and sharks are interacting more with people. Managers are considering controlling them by culling. We disagree and firmly believe we can share the oceans peacefully with them. https://t.co/mKRLdS581X
Something different today. There are few places on earth where evolution is as obvious as it is in the Galapagos, and one of the sights that stunned me the most was seeing Marine Iguanas feed underwater. A clear example of how the Galapagos inspired Darwin. #explore
Happy Holidays! 🎉🎄 At this special time of year, we would like to express our gratitude and appreciation for your continued support. 🙏 On behalf of ZMT, we wish you and your loved ones a joyous holiday season and a successful New Year 2024! 🌟✨
I was thrilled to present my first talk at an international conference #IPFC2023 on the evolution of stripe patterns in clownfish, thanks @SalaminLab for this amazing experience 🐠
@CoralReefFish Hello Luiz, thank you for your interest in my work. It has been published already and is available at this link, it is open access. Enjoy! 🙂

Very glad to have participated to the German Ichthyological Society Conference with a poster. I talked about the genetic basis of color pattern phenotype diversity in the hamlet radiation 🐠 I had great talks with everybody and I met very inspiring fish enthusiasts!
Oscar Puebla at the German Ichthyological Society Conference, talking about the beauty of hamlets to study fundamental evolutionary questions in a context of rapid & recent radiation in sympatry 🐠
