This book presents 19 selected contributions to the 16th Evolutionary Biology Meeting, which took place in September 2012 in Marseilles. The aims of these annual meetings, which gather together leading evolutionary bioloigsts and other sienctists, are to promote the exchange of ideas and to encourag...
