• Climate affects embryonic development in a viviparous snake (2004, background): “…during embryogenesis can also profoundly affect phenotypic traits of the offspring, such as body size, scalation, and locomotor performance (Shine and Harlow 1996, Shine et al. 1997, Downes and Shine 1999, Andrews and Mathies 2000, Flatt et al. 2001, Shine and Elphick 2001, Webb et al. 2001).”
• Life-History Evolution in Reptiles (2005, background): “Some species may be unable to retain developing embryos without reducing developmental rates or hatchling viability (Andrews 2004, Andrews & Mathies 2000); in other taxa, adaptations to low-temperature incubation may be incompatible with maternal retention at high body temperatures (Shine 1999).”
