What Rensch (really) found there Rensch’s rule is one of the great macroevolutionary patterns studied by evolutionary biologists. It describes the positive association between male-biased sexual size dimorphism (SSD) and species size, a relationship that has been observed in many different taxa (although it is certainly not a generalizable pattern). Since 1950, year in which […]
