Experimental introductions of species have provided some of the most tractable examples of rapid phenotypic changes, which may reflect plasticity, the impact of stochastic processes, or the action of
Data & Results from Harris et al. (2015) Deep genetic differentiation within Janetaescincus spp. from the Seychelles Islands. Herpetological Journal 25: 205-213
Phenotypic divergence is often unrelated to genotypic divergence. An extreme example is rapid phenotypic differentiation despite genetic similarity. Another extreme is morphological stasis despite sub
