They found that for highly specialised skulls, such as those for feeding on nectar or blood, a process called
heterochrony strongly influenced their development.
Heterochrony and allometry: the analysis of evolutionary change in ontogeny.
Ontogenetic allometry,
heterochrony, and interspecific differences in the skull of African apes, using tridimensional Procrustes analysis.
Protracted juvenilism (
heterochrony, paedomorphosis, or neoteny of various authors) is a feature of angiosperm woods almost exclusively.
Heterochrony is greatly important to determine developmental timing of reproductive and somatic gene expressions (Gould 1977), and has been considered an important mechanism in the evolution of the Copepoda (Huys and Boxshall 1991).

Highlighting
heterochrony, excavating subaltern and peripheral histories, and espousing a materialism that retains little if any association with Marxism, the catalogue texts (there are dozens) have an irreproachable quality.
