A integração morfológica refere-se à organização modular das relações e conexões entre os caracteres, a qual influencia a direção e velocidade da mudança evolutiva, seja restringindo ou facilitando esta ao longo das diferentes direções do morfoespaço. Desta forma, a descrição de padrões e magnitudes de integração e a análise de suas conseqüências evolutivas são aspectos centrais do estudo da evolução de morfologias complexas. Aqui analisamos a integração morfológica no crânio de diferentes famílias de mamíferos, abordando as seguintes questões. Existem padrões de integração comuns a todos os grupos? Seriam esses padrões compatíveis com hipóteses a priori baseadas em ontogenia e função compartilhadas? Que tipos de respostas evolutivas á sel...
