Karyotypic data are presented for six additional species from the genus Gehyra collected in Australia, New Guinea and Fiji. C and G-banding of three of the very diverse species which all share the ancestral 2n = 44 karyotype, further strengthens the phylogenetic model for the evolution of this compl

A recent hypothesis suggests that resting metabolic rate, measured as energy expended per unit body mass per unit time, might be implicated in the rate of nucleotide substitution in animals. Using relative rate tests on DNA-DNA hybridization data from birds, we show that generation time is significa
