This project investigates paedomorphosis, where juvenile traits persist into adulthood, by studying beetles. It aims to document morphological changes, test evolutionary hypotheses, and identify causes behind this phenomenon, contributing to a broader understanding of evolution across animal species.
Paedomorphosis is a poorly understood phenomenon in evolutionary biology in which juvenile traits of an organism are retained into adulthood.
The evolutionary origins of, and driving forces behind, various cases of paedomorphosis in animals remain unknown.
Exploring cases of paedomorphosis across the entire animal kingdom is a desired but overwhelming task, but beetles, a mega-diverse insect order with numerous paedomorphic lineages, is the best proxy to study this phenomenon within a manageable…
