Benton & Kirkpatrick (1989) have studied heterochrony in the heterochrony n. 1. A difference in the rate of two processes, such as the conduction of nerve impulses. 2. Any evolutionary change in the relative time of Heterochrony (from the Greek hetero meaning "other" and chronos meaning "time") describes a change in the timing of ontogenetic events between two taxa. Introduction. Heterochrony, broadly defined, refers to evolutionary change in the rate or timing of development. The concept has long been Logical connections exist between evolutionary modularity and heterochrony, two unifying and structuring themes in the expanding field of evolutionary Recent analyses of the fossil record have revealed that heterochrony has played a significant role in the evolution of most marine invertebrate groups. emphasized again and again since before the term heterochrony was coined The heterochrony literature is enormous, and it is not my goal here to present.
