Meeting Abstract 35.3 Friday, Jan. 4 A 3D investigation of the morphology of lepetellid limpets (Lepetella sierrai): hypotheses on feeding ecology and symbiosis JUDGE, J. L.*; HASZPRUNAR, G.; UC Berkeley; Ludwig-Maximilians University Munich jennajudge@berkeley.edu The Lepetelloidea, a clade of small limpet-shaped gastropods, represents a case study in continental margin and deep-sea diversification. Lineages in this clade have […]
3D Imaging Spectroscopy for Measuring Organismal Hyperspectral Patterns
Meeting Abstract 35.4 Friday, Jan. 4 3D Imaging Spectroscopy for Measuring Organismal Hyperspectral Patterns HARVEY, TA*; PRUM, RO; Yale University; Yale University todd.harvey@yale.edu The color phenotype of an organism consists of a complete description of the variation in spectral reflectance over the entire organismal surface. Scientific description of the color phenotype requires detailed documentation of both the […]
