| This certainly appears to be the case in neotenic salamanders, for example. |
|
| Shelob could well belong to a neotenic neuropteran species in which cocoon-spinning ability has been directed towards prey capture. |
|
| Adults sirens are aquatic and neotenic, with lengths ranging from 4-36 inches. |
|
| Humans would have selected animals with neotenic variations because they were more tractable. |
|
| Adult humans, for example, display various neotenic body features that other adult primates do not. |
|
| However, the young man can take advantage of the fact that older men are also of the generation before, who are less neotenic and look more like apes. |
|
| Humans would have selected animals with paedomorphic or neotenic variations because they were more tractable. |
|
| Domestic sheep differ from their wild relatives and ancestors in several respects, having become uniquely neotenic as a result of selective breeding by humans. |
|
| Based on some osteologic aspects of Lile gracilis, Vivero and Romero-Castillo proposed that the allopatrical processes led to the persistence of neotenic characters. |
