Inter- and intra-species variation in venom chemical composition is geographical and ontogenic.

These differing proportions were initially seen as species-distinguishing characters, but are now regarded as natural ontogenic variation.

The armpit effect is a form of ontogenic recognition, wherein an animal uses its own or another animal's physical characteristics for recognition purposes.

Remains of Rimasuchus show variations in size and proportions, and it is likely that they represent different ontogenic (growth) stages.

The outer surface is generally smooth in fossil specimens, although certain species at different stages of ontogenic development may possess many small tubercles along their surfaces.

Also, the sutures that separate the bones of the skull in both specimens are fully fused, suggesting that the individuals have reached a late ontogenic stage.

The quality of preservation and the ontogenic range (age range) of the specimens helped make Coelophysis one of the best known of all genera.

Fossils have been found of numerous specimens of common members of this family such as Hovasaurus and Thadeosaurus at in different stages of ontogenic development.

The age of the plant species can also play a role, as certain species change in their levels of disease resistance as they mature; a process known as ontogenic resistance.

The original name, Pokemon, stands for "POK erythroid myeloid ontogenic factor" and is most likely a backronym of the Pokémon media franchise.

A study by Erickson in 2009 has shown that Jeholornis (along with Archaeopteryx) had relatively slow ontogenic development, i.e. they grew very slowly, compared to most modern birds, which grow very quickly.

However, other studies claim that some of the variation seen between the two species, such as the orientation of the maxillary tooth row, may not be ontogenic, thus making B. sealeyi a valid taxon.

Generally, there are two color 'phases' that are genetically inherited, but are not ontogenic as with the emerald tree boa,C. caninus and the green tree python, Morelia viridis.

Differences in the depictions led authors such as Anthonie Cornelis Oudemans and Masauji Hachisuka to speculate about sexual dimorphism, ontogenic traits, seasonal variation, and even the existence of different species, but these theories are not accepted today.

The Baldwin effect, also known as Baldwinian evolution or ontogenic evolution, is a theory of a possible evolutionary process that was originally put forward in 1896 in a paper, "A New Factor in Evolution," by American psychologist James Mark Baldwin.

"Actinodon germanicus", described by O. Kuhn in 1939 on the basis of a specimen found from the Czech Republic, It is now known to be an unusually large individual of C. vranyi, probably in a late stage of ontogenic development.

Palaeolimnological studies are concerned with reconstructing the paleoenvironments of inland waters (lakes and streams; freshwater, brackish, or saline) - and especially changes associated with such events as climatic change, human impacts (e.g., eutrophication, or acidification), and internal ontogenic processes.

Despite the existence of a fossil record, full classification and phylogeny of the sturgeon species has been difficult to determine, in part due to the high individual and ontogenic variation, including geographical clines in certain features, such as rostrum shape, number of scutes and body length.

For Betancourt (2009), Kinanthropometry is a scientific discipline of Biomechanics that can be defined as: the set of theoretical assumptions that explain the relationships between the morphofunctional structure of healthy individuals and their biological potentiality of performing an efficient motion in an ontogenic moment.

The cause of such variations can be environmental or ontogenetic.

This fish has an ontogenetic separation of life history stage.

How can the ontogenetic development of behavior be related to neural mechanisms?

This species, in its various forms, shows considerable ontogenetic variation.

The ontogenetic record of its past habitats is preserved in the shell structure.

There is also interspecies variation, especially ontogenetic changes as a fish experiences growth.

All ontogenetic stages of the beetle are present in the concretions.

His argues that all ontogenetic events are the "mechanical" result of differential cell growth.

For him heritability was phylogenetic, not ontogenetic as their letter suggested.

Therefore, Cryonectes is at a relatively early stage in ontogenetic development.

This indicates a wide range of ontogenetic variation.

However, it is considered to be an intraspecific, possibly ontogenetic, variation.

However, in many cases, these comparisons are complex because there are no universal ontogenetic time markers.

First and foremost, the ontogenetic development of the creatures was completely interrupted by the repatriation procedure.

Moreover, in other cases, whole mushrooms can be eaten, without any selection or bias towards ontogenetic stages.

The ethologist examines this question primarily from the point of view of ontogenetic development.

This species is an "extreme example of ontogenetic metamorphoses and sexual dimorphism in vertebrates."

These ontogenetic changes in egocentrism are thought to drive the development of logical and formal operational thinking.

On the ontogenetic time scale, the Competition Model posits that language emergence can be examined in at least two ways.

Their dietary preferences display an ontogenetic shift.

Ontogenetic dichromatism occurs at sexual maturation and lasts a whole lifetime.

Description of the early ontogenetic part of the Tentaculitids, with implications for classification.

Thus, the thrifty phenotype should be considered as the capacity of all offspring to respond to environmental cues during early ontogenetic development.

Some authorities order characters when there is a clear logical, ontogenetic, or evolutionary transition among the states (for example, "legs: short; medium; long").

Further complicating matters are the diverse interpretations of ontogenetic and sexual features in pachycephalosaurs.
