Form and flow: A sculptural approach to the heart
Article Abstract:
An observational approach to natural science is recommended and an artistic approach nourished by natural forms and processes without necessarily being representational is seen to result in a rewarding mix of discovery and creativity. The experience of shaping variants of Wilkes' Flowform design, which provides insights into the morphodynamics of flow, leading to the exploration of the forms and dynamics of flow through heart cavities is narrated.

Body doubles
Article Abstract:
The cryptic species are those organisms that are morphologically indistinguishable, but still belong to different evolutionary lineages. The morphological characters, such as the use of different habitats, contrasting behaviors, divergent ecological interactions, and reproductive isolation, which helps in identifying the cryptic species, are discussed.

Ocean currents mediate evolution in island lizards
Article Abstract:
Prevailing ocean currents depicts best explanation for the patterns of gene flow among island populations of Anolis lizards. Results indicate that over-water dispersal after hurricane contains adaptive diversification in Anolis lizards.
