Disparity pattern of unionoid bivalves from Lake Malawi (East‐Africa): a case study for adaptive strategies to heterogeneous environment

The shell shape of many unionoid bivalves is known to be highly variable in order to cope with the heterogeneity and instability of freshwater environments. Along environmental gradients shell shape of many species is changing fairly consistently. In this case study the disparity pattern of three sp...
