Abstract

Introduction to the evolutionary biology of the threespine stickleback. 1: Systematics and morphology of the Gasterosteiformes. 2: Allozyme variation of the Gasterosteus aculeatus complex. 3: Physiological ecology and evolution. 4: Energy allocation. 5: Life history variation in females. 6: Ecology on the breeding grounds. 7: Evolution of foraging behaviour. 8: Predators and morphological evolution. 9: Adaptive variation in antipredator behaviour. 10: Proximate determinants of stickleback behaviour. 11: Evolution of aggresive behaviour. 12: Evolution of reproductive behaviour. 13: Speciation and the evolution of reproductive isolation in the sticklebacks of south-western British Columbia. 14: Palaeobiology and evolution. 15: Evolutionary inference: the value of viewing evolution through stickleback-tinted glasses.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
