Migrations and the related amphibiotic nature of migrating species are the most important features of phylogenetic adaptation in certain species of fishes and Agnatha. |
A model is proposed which postulates that insect metamorphosis is an effect of adaptations to differing sets of environmental selective pressures during ancestral amphibiotic life. |
In the alternative 'gill theory' wings are homologous with the 'gills' of mayfly larvae, implying that the first pterygotes were amphibiotic and that their ancestors were aquatic. |
It is a very common species living in various land habitats but is amphibiotic too which is the unanimous opinion of many authors. |
The amphibiotic migration of these mature adults is very short-lived, but if we consider the whole life cycle of the species, the use of this term is justified. |
