Paleobiological research is increasingly engaged
with the impact of developmental data on explanations
of evolutionary change, at both large and small
scales. Questions about morphological similarity,
convergence and/or parallelism, body-plan origin,
historical diversity, and the polarity and sequence
of change are all central to the evolutionary-developmental
debate; in each case fossils provide a unique perspective
and source of data.
