Ontogenetic and static allometry of hind femur length in the cricket Gryllus bimaculatus (Orthoptera: Gryllidae) with implications for evo-devo of morphological scaling
The paper examines ontogenetic and static allometry of hind femur length in Gryllus bimaculatus, finding slight positive ontogenetic scaling and variable static scaling, supporting the size-grain hypothesis and suggesting ontogenetic allometry may not predict evolutionary allometry.
