Morphometric approaches to systematics and microevolution: Applications from paleozoic bryozoa

Documentation of microevolution through geologic time is a significant paleontologic contribution to evolutionary biology. Paleomicroevolutionary studies require accurate stratigraphic resolution over a large geographic area, through changing environments, over a sustained period of time, with an abundant, complex, eurytopic fossil group. The combination of cryptostome bryozoans, revised taxonomic procedures, multivariate morphometric methods, and advances in microcomputer technology allows for research of this nature.
