    J Matthias Starck
    Institute of Systematic Zoology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Jena, Jena, Germany
    J Morphol 254:232-46. 2002
    ..We propose that such developmental plasticity in modern birds may be reduced in association with the shortened developmental time during the later evolution of the ornithurine birds...

    Zoology (Jena) 109:310-7. 2006
    ..A comparison with literature data supports the idea that SDA is mainly determined by gastric function and that it is low in egg eaters because they do not have to break down solid meals in the stomach as other snake species do...
