Live fast, diversify non-adaptively: evolutionary diversification of exceptionally short-lived annual killifishes

Abstract Background Adaptive radiations are triggered by ecological opportunity – the access to novel niche domains with abundant available resources that facilitate the formation of new ecologically divergent species. Therefore, as new species saturate niche space, clades experience a diversity-dep...
