Dear morphometricians
A series of morphometrics papers just has appeared online in the journal
Development Genes and Evolution. So far, this has been a journal of
evolutionary developmental biology where morphometric analyses were
published only rarely, but there will be a forthcoming special issue and
the journal will maintain a permanent "Topical Collection" entitled
"Size and Shape" where additional papers will appear (I think of it as
an open-ended special issue...).
I think it might be worthwhile for many morphometricians to have a look
at this. Here are the papers that are currently available:
Editorial

I hope this will be useful, both for the papers currently available and
as a possible place to publish morphometric research with an evo-devo slant.
Best wishes,
Chris
