Smith of the UCLA Center for Tropical Research report that lizards long thought to be evolving independently on Caribbean Islands in fact exchange genetic material. The reason, according to their 12-month study: Hurricanes and lesser storms wash the lizards into prevailing ocean currents, which carry them from island to island.

Printer-friendly version by Carl Wieland First published in: Creation Ex Nihilo Technical Journal Today, the various species of Anolis lizard on Puerto Rico include ones small enough to forage for insects at the ends of branches, also a greenish variety better able to hide in the leaves, and a brownish version well camouflaged on tree trunks and the ground. Just as for Darwin's finches, it can reasonably be inferred (and creationists could agree) that all the present-day species descended from an original species (possibly only one pair) invading the island. It is not difficult to conceive how such specialization occurred, with the lizards adapting via selection acting only on the genetic information present in the original population. The originally less-specialized 'ancestor'

    Extractions: VALUATION OF BIOLOGICAL DIVERSITY CONSERVED IN-SITU The following brief references to particular cases have been chosen to illustrate specific points about biodiversity evaluation in situ . Because of space limitations, coverage of each can only be the minimum necessary to support the point under discussion. III.1 The Rosy Periwinkle Specimens of the rosy periwinkle found in Madagascar are the source of two drugs effective against cancers including Hodgkin's disease and childhood leukemia (Rural Advancement Foundation International 1994 p. 52). Those drugs, vincristine and vinblastine, have vastly increased the remission rate for childhood leukemia (from 20 percent to 80 percent) and have reportedly generated more than $200 million per annum in commercial sales to their developer, Eli Lilly Incorporated in the United States (Myers and Simon 1994 p. 81). This case has been used as a prime example of the failure of the source country of in situ biodiversity products to reap the appropriate reward for providing technology to pharmaceutical firms. However Myers (1979 p.71) reports that though the samples used for development of the drug were found in Madagascar, the species is thought to have its origin in the West Indies, and is found in many tropical countries.

    http://invasions.bio.utk.edu/invaders/sagrei.html
    
    Extractions: Male brown anole displaying from perch. T he brown anole is a small Caribbean lizard that colonized south Florida and Mexico about 50-60 years ago, and more recently, Hawaii. At least eight other Caribbean lizards have become established in south Florida, but only the brown anole is expanding its range into other southeastern states. This species is arguably the most abundant terrestrial vertebrate in peninsular Florida, and often reaches densities of more than one individual per square meter in disturbed habitats! The brown anole is thought to be responsible for a dramatic decline of previously stable urban and rural populations of the green anole, the only anole native to the United States. Green anoles often undergo a habitat shift and disappear within a few years after brown anole arrival. The two species are similar in size and overlap considerably in their diets, suggesting dietary resource competition. Predation on green anole hatchlings has also been demonstrated, suggesting that an ecological double-whammy termed "intra-guild predation" (competitors that also eat each other) might better describe the interaction. Despite declines, green anole populations often remain viable in the face of dense brown anole populations when understory vegetation is present, suggesting that suitable cover for hatchlings is important for long-term green anole survival. This illustrates how a powerful synergism between habitat alteration and biological invasions can affect native species.

Body Size and Coexistence in Desert Rodents: Chance or Community Structure? Ecology 63(2):391:400. This paper tries to ascertain if body size is a determining factor in species coexistence in rodents without using phylogeny. The results of their analysis depended on if they included only the granivore guild in their analysis or if they did a more inclusive analysis adding other guilds. In this case it appears that evidence for community structure is scale dependent. Giannasi, N.; Thorpe, R. S.; Malhotra, A. A phylogenetic analysis of body size evolution in the Anolis roquet group (Sauria: Iguanidae): Character displacement or size assortment? Molecular Ecology 9:193-202. This paper uses molecular genetic data to test whether character displacement or competitive exclusion accounts for the distribution of a subset of the Anolis group, the A. roquet species group. They conclude that size assortment alone was insufficient to explain the observed patterns of body size differences, but a
