Coevolution and Speciation examples.

Some links to further information on some of the examples I mentioned today.

The Madagascar Star Orchid story is described, and you can see further pictures, both here and here.

There's a nice article here that covers the role of linguistics in studying the initial peopling of the Americas.

The snail shell coiling example is described here.

There are several nice articles on the web on the evolution of the Hawaiian Drosophila. Here is one I found interesting, with some general background, and there are some nice pictures on the PBS Evolution website as part of their Adaptive Radiation Gallery.
