Abstract: The evolutionary process of adaptation to the cave environment leads to extreme genetic, morphological, and physiological modifications commonly known as stygomorphism. The cave-dwelling armored catfish Ancistrus cryptophthalmus is a good model to understand the evolutionary… read more here.
