Evolutionary biologists have long suspected that the diversification of a single species into multiple descendent species 鈥� that is, an 鈥渁daptive radiation鈥� 鈥� is the result of each species adapting to a different environment. Yet formal tests of this hypothesis have been elusive owing to the difficulty of firmly establishing the relationship between species traits and evolutionary 鈥渇itness鈥� for a group of related species that recently diverged from a common ancestral species.
