African antelopes in the ice age
Climatic changes during the ice age influenced the distribution of antelope species throughout Africa. In the case of the South African bluebuck, a fatal factor came into play at a later stage.

Brachiopods can see the light
Already in the 19th century, zoologists noticed up to 16 pigment spots in the front part of certain brachiopod larvae. Since these larvae react to light their pigment spots were assumed to represent eye-like photoreceptors.

Diversity partioning during the Ordovician biodiversification
The Ordovician witnessed a tremendous increase of marine biodiversity. Is this crucial phase of Earth's history based on ecological interactions or abiotic environmental factors?

Evolution in Action
It is estimated that on the Earth, there are between 4 and 40 million plant and animal species. This overwhelming variety came about through evolution in the course of geological history. Over time, many organisms vanished, leaving nothing but fossil traces. Such traces increased continuously, and some of them have been preserved to this day. However, many species have not yet been discovered, while others are threatened with extinction. The idea of a common origin of all life goes back to Charles Darwin.

Lifestyles of mammals
Mammals have adapted to occupy various environments, including the land, the air and the water. But not all evolutionary adaptations are as clearly recognizable as legs, wings or flippers.
