Bergmann’s rule under rocks: testing the influence of latitude and temperature on a chiton from mexican marine ecoregions
Hernández-P, Raquel; Benítez, Hugo A.; Ornelas-García, Claudia Patricia; Correa, Margarita; Suazo, Manuel J; Piñero, Daniel (2023)Bergmann’s rule relates the trend of increasing body size with higher latitudes, where colder climates are found. In the Mexican Pacific, three marine ecoregions are distinguishable across a latitudinal gradient. Stenoplax ...

Breaking the law: Is it correct to Use the converse Bergmann rule in Ceroglossus chilensis? An overview using geometric morphometrics
Benitez, Hugo A.; Muñoz-Ramírez, Carlos; Correa, Margarita; Acuña-Rodríguez, Ian S.; Villalobos-Leiva, Amado; Contador Mejías, Tamara; Velásquez, Nelson A.; Suazo, Manuel J. (2024)The converse Bergmann’s rule is a pattern of body size variation observed in many ectothermic organisms that contradicts the classic Bergmann’s rule and suggests that individuals inhabiting warmer climates tend to exhibit ...

Unraveling biotypes of the northern house mosquito, Culex pipiens s.l. (Diptera: Culicidae): molecular differentiation and morphometric analysis
Alvial, Ingrid E.; Hernández-P, Raquel; Suazo, Manuel J; González, Christian R.; Véliz, David; Benítez, Hugo A. (2024)Geometric morphometrics was used to determine whether geographic isolation could explain differences in wing size and shape between and within continental (27°S to 41°S) and insular (Rapa Nui) populations of Culex pipiens ...

Wing shape variation between terrestrial and coastal populations of the invasive box tree moth, Cydalima perspectalis, in Croatia
Lemic, Darija; Viric Gasparic, Helena; Majcenic, Patricija; Pajač Živković, Ivana; Bjeliš, Mario; Suazo, Manuel J; Correa, Margarita; Hernández, Jordan; Benítez, Hugo A. (2023)The box tree moth (Cydalima perspectalis Walker, 1859; Lepidoptera: Crambidae) is an invasive species naturally distributed in Asia. The caterpillars in all developmental stages cause damage through defoliation of plants, ...
