| | A number of species of flowering plants have co-evolved with specific pollinators (insects, bats, etc). | | | Moth-pollinated plants, for example, often have spurs or tubes the exact length of a certain moth’s “tongue.” Indeed, Charles Darwin predicted the existence of a moth in Madagascar based on the size and shape of an orchid flower he saw there. | | | When combined, their independent results dovetailed nicely and refuted several previously suggested feeding mechanisms, including one proposed by the legendary Yale paleontologist, John Ostrom. |

| | Measurements of egg size and shape, as well as position of the clutch within the coelomic cavity, were taken from diag nostic radiographs of 20 female Cuban rock iguanas, Cyclura nubila, 81 to 18 days prior to laying. | | | Combined with data on maternal body size, these variables were entered into multiple regression models to predict clutch size and timing of egg laying. | | | Equations were generated that should be applicable to this and other large Cyclura species. |
