Evolutionary Links Between Skull Shape and Body Size Suggest Allometric Forces and Selection at Work in a Generalist Group of Lizards by Julio A. Rivera, Jesualdo A. Fuentes‐G., Emília P. Martins

“…We also found strong links to overall body size, with evolutionary shifts to larger bodies being associated with more compact skulls and slower evolutionary rates. This is the opposite of the pattern in most mammals in which larger bodied species have longer snouts, and more like the pattern in frogs in which function has played a more important evolutionary role. …”
