Ecological morphology is a subfield of evolutionary morphology that examines how a species' morphology is related to the environment in which it lives and how variation in a given morphological feature within or among species is related to ecology. Important concepts considered in ecological morphological studies include the biological role of morphological features; niche partitioning and the evolutionary processes driven by competition within and among species living in the same environment; and anatomical and morphological convergence among distantly related species with similar ecology, performance, and fitness.
