Caribbean Lizards Evolve Independently
From Allen Salzberg, June 20, 1998.
As reprinted in the Cold Blooded News , Vol.25, No.10, October 1998. Wednesday, April 1, 1998
A discovery that remarkably similar lizard communities have evolved independently on different islands in the Caribbean is shedding new light on the science of evolution and genetics. A team of scientists, led by Jonathan B. Losos, Ph.D., associate professor of biology in Arts and Sciences at Washington University, examined DNA of 56 species found throughout large Caribbean Islands of Puerto Rico, Cuba, Jamaica and the Greater Antilles to test theories on evolutionary history of the Anoles. The study reveals a perfect example of an evolutionary concept known as "convergence", where species evolve in similar adaptations to the environment despite living geographically apart. Although evolutionary convergence has been taken as evidence for the working of natural selection, the study is unique in showing that entire communities have converged. This goes against the grain of most evolutionary thought which stresses that random events a meteorite striking Earth or a hurricane wiping out island species play unpredictable roles that send evolutionary diversification down different pathways.

Vertebrate Paleontology Short Biography:
Dr. Rowe's primary research focuses on the evolution and development of the vertebrate skeleton. In this work, Dr. Rowe uses phylogenetic systematics to study the evolution of skeletal form as well as the evolution of skeletal development in the ontogeny of living species. This work is directed mostly at the early history of mammals and their extinct relatives among Synapsida, and on the history of birds and their extinct relatives among Dinosauria, and on other amniotes. An important tool for this research is high-resolution X-ray computed tomography, which has become a secondary research focus. This breakthrough technology permits the non-destructive inspection of internal structure in even the smallest and most delicate of vertebrate specimens. In collaborative research with scientist from many countries, Dr. Rowe is scanning and studying the anatomy of

Who made the world
Who was it who made the world sir?
A bang brought creation about.
Who set off the explosion, Sir?
Did this bang make you deaf, Sir?
It happened a long time ago.
How do you know it happened , Sir? A man in a book told me so. Who was the man in the book ,Sir? A man who looked up in the sky. How do you know that he knew, Sir? Who was it made me and you , Sir? A creature crept out of the sea. Who was it made the creature, Sir? The creature just happened to be. Why did it creep from the sea, Sir? It thought it was time for a change. How did it grow arms and legs, Sir? I know, it sounds awfully strange.

If it hadn't been for my abysmal lack of ability in math, I probably would've become a scientist instead of a Romantic Lit major. As to what kind of science, I never had the opportunity to discover my alter milieu - I love several fields of hard science and several of (what are considered by some) the "softer" sciences. I have now broken these links down by category. Because of the inter-disciplinary nature of so much in the sciences these days, I thought it better to list some links in more than just one category. If you think any other link(s) belong in a different category, or definitely should be in more than one, please send me e-mail. I'd also like to know if you are aware of other good Science links I have missed. Thank you.

Scientific Terminology Related to Fossils
Fossil Museum Scientific Glossary
abyssal plain : Large area of extremely flat ocean floor lying near a continent and generally over 4 km in depth. Acanthodians : Now extinct, earliest group of fish with jaws, ranging from the Silurian to the Permian. Acritarchs : Organic-walled microfossils common throughout the Proterozoic and early Paleozoic adaptation : Any heritable characteristic of an organism that improves its ability to survive and reproduce in its environment. Also used to describe the process of genetic change within a population, as influenced by natural selection. Alternatively, some heritable feature of an individual's phenotype that improves its chances of survival and reproduction in the existing environment.
adaptive radiation (also "radiation", for short): The diversification, over evolutionary time, of a species or group of species into several different species or subspecies that are typically adapted to different ecological niches (for example, Darwin's finches). The term can also be applied to larger groups of organisms, as in "the adaptive radiation of mammals." For example, trilobites underwent a massive radiation during the Cambrian, and insects during the Cretaceous. Agnathans: A jawless, heavily armored fish that appeared in the

    Paleontology Fossil Record of Evolution Evolution The word "evolution" is used by paleontologists and biologists to describe three related but distinct ideas: 1. The observation that life has a history. In other words, the deduction made from our studies of the fossil record that the world has been populated by a vast sequence of organisms that are no longer living. Most of the evidence in support of this observation comes from the fossil record. 2. The inference that the vast sequence of extinct fossils and living organisms is interrelated, i.e. that there is a connectedness to the living world such that all organisms are united by common descent. Evidence in support of this inference comes from comparisons of both living and fossil organisms and from the temporal sequence of species found in the fossil record. 3. The theory that purports to explain how new species are produced from previously existing species ( speciation ). Currently, the most widely accepted "theory of evolution" is a hybrid of modern genetics combined with Charles Darwin’s original "theory of descent with modification through the agency of natural selection" called the modern synthesis The details of how evolution works to produce new species is still being actively researched and debated, both by biologists and paleontologists. Because of the nature of the fossil record - in particular its relative lack of resolution at short time scales (ecological time) - most attempts to study generation by generation changes in species are carried out by biologists.

    Lies on the Evolution Deceit Website On 8/11/01 I emailed the webmaster of the Evolution Deceit website informing him/her of the falsehoods appearing on their site. I also stated that I would check back periodically to see if the errors had been corrected. UPDATE : On 1/11/02, I recieved an email from the EvolutionDeceit.com webmaster informing me that these errors have now been corrected in the internet edition, and will be changed in future printings of the book version. From the Scenario of human evolution page. Finally, in 1994, a team from Liverpool University in England launched an extensive research to reach a definite conclusion. Finally, they concluded that "the Australopithecines are quadripedal".(4) Briefly, Australopithecines have no link with humans and they are merely an extinct ape species.
